The earliest and oldest VCR I know of was in my high school years, a 1984 Panasonic PV-1225. When I first saw it, I never knew VCRs were made so long ago. When I was in elementary school, the oldest VCRs were the 1988 Panasonic AG-1240 with G-chassis. In 1995 every, classrooms have its own TV and VCR unit, both a Zenith.
