The colour picture shows the Type B in Studio 8A at the end of its life. I don't have many images of the non-mixer Type Bs in Broadcasting House.
If you have some photos of them, especially the ones installed in the basement
of the BH extension (B6-B8, B12-B16) please get in touch.
These four photos by Neil Harlan, taken
c.1969 with an old folding
camera, show one of the basement studios, probably B13 or B14.
The studios were equiped with four Philips tape machines.
For disc playback there were RP/2s and, in some cases, TD/7s. (
