    Description

    Offered is Casio's short lived (1979 only) Melody 80 with the following functions:
    Calculator
    Clock
    Calendar (of sorts, it showed the date)
    Piano
    Dual Alarm
    Stopwatch with Lap
    All of those features in 1979 was quite a feat.
    Everything works, though the current date, these 41 years after manufacture, no longer indicates the day of the week.
    One other problem is that one vertical column on the display does not work.  On the second digit from the right the two left-hand vertical segments do not display.  In the second image, it should be all "8's", but you see the second to last digit shows a "3" instead.
    The case is pretty beat up and the back bears the faded remains of the owner's name.
    Any questions, let me know.
    This item would be an interesting addition to anyone's collection.
    HOMELEARN has been selling on eBay since the 90's.
    I try my best with photos and descriptions so you know exactly what you are buying.
