VHS on a Tropical Island

“Video Home System” or VHS for short, was developed by the Victor Company of Japan (JVC) in the 1970’s.

… if you are like me, VHS played an enormous role in your up bringing, the magic black cassette tape that recorded Thunder Cats, or He-Man and then was played back endlessly, over breakfast, lunch, and dinner, until tracking was needed on every replay!

On an international Discarded Tech finding excusrion this empty shell of an old VHS cassette tape was found on a tropical island in the Maldives, looks like it had only “recently” gone out of circulation, and now forms part of the ultimate tropical… Discarded Tech!
