The 200C oscillator, which the company sold between 1941 and 1954. (Oscillators essentially generate high-frequency waves for communications.) The 200C is an improvement on the 200A oscillator, the company's first product, which it sold to Walt Disney. There is no 100 series of oscillator. The company didn't think Disney would buy something from a company that had only put out one product. (The founders are in the picture, standing in front of the front-entrance mosaic. Packard is the tall one.)
