    "History of clockwork-driven Tape Recorders" by Roland Schellin refers 1955 as the beginning of production of the MMK3 tr. However, the schematic shows the initial drawing date June, 1956.

    This recorder uses the first transistors made by Telefunken already advertised in 1955. The same transistors were used in Telefunken TR1 radio in 1955.
