Sony Archives
The Sony Archives communicates the spirit of the Sony Corporation, founded over 60 years ago as the Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering Corporation, and serves as a venue where visitors can learn about the history of the company by viewing how the company products have changed over time.

Sony started up in 1946 as a small company named Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo with the strong intent of wanting to do things no one else was doing and it took on the challenge of Japan's first tape recorder. It was the first popular product for Sony but it weighed in at a heavy 35 kg.
