History: |
Paul V. Galvin and Edward Stewart, both from Illinois, founded a storage battery company in 1921. For failure to pay exsise taxes, the government shut the business down in 1923. Stewart opened a new storage battery firm, called "Stewart Storage Battery Co.", in 1926. Quasar is a North American brand of electronics, first used by Motorola in 1967 for a model line of transistorized color televisions, which were well-known for containing all serviceable parts in a drawer beneath the television's cabinet. Soon, it was established as its own brand, with all Motorola-manufactured televisions being sold as "Quasar by Motorola"." It continues that the radio-manufacturing and television division was sold (divested itself) to Matsushita in 1974. In other words this is only meant for Quasar (not for Motorola). Motorola bought General Instruments by a stock swap on September 15, 1999. |
