About

The Dictaphone 4250 is a dictation recorder from around 1985. This recorder was quite advanced for the time and offered letter cues. These cues allowed you to quickly fast-forward through the tape and have it stop at each cue, making it easier to find separate recordings.

These recorders were commonly used for executives to record (small) conferences or letters, which would later on be written out by a transcriptionist.
