Garrard S-50
Almost nothing is documented about the Garrard S-50. The Archive holds no manual, specification sheet or review for this model. No production years, original price or even a confirmed product type are recorded anywhere in the accessible record.
The surviving period documentation shows Garrard advertising other models. The Type A, AT6 and Autoslim appeared together in Audio (May 1963, p.5) at $79.50, $54.50 and $39.50 respectively. A January 1967 Audio ad (p.5) introduced the compact automatic turntable "50 Mark II" at $54.50. The S-50's name hints at a relationship to that Model 50 line, but no document seen by the Archive connects the two. It could have been a variant, a rebadge, or a model sold only in certain markets. The record doesn't say.
No technical specifications have been traced. If you have a manual, an advertisement or a photograph of the S-50, the Archive would welcome it.
