Evolution Of Pulse Induction Marketing

[RONS DETECTORS MINELAB]

Just thought I’d share some of the original adds from the old PI adds.

Maybe someone has even some older ones they could share.

lot’s of familiar names from the hay days. ?

Even found some Vlf adds.

That's a very young Gerry on the GB2 advertisement.  Thanks for posting these, all well before my time so good to see.

I believe that was about the time I bought my first GB2 from Gerry. Drove to Boise and had him take it out the box. That GB2 is still going strong, still have it.

Old ad for the sd220d

Jin, I was hoping someone had the SD2200D add, thanks for sharing. I see they had a Golden Hawk also, wonder what frequency it ran?

Some old interesting pics and advertising back in the day. 

My 1st successful PI find was with the SD-2100 and as soon as I realized those were DEEP detectors, I became a dealer for Minelab as well.  At that same time the SD-2200 came out and I was off and running.

I think the 1st Minelab ad I was in was with the GP-3000.

 

The tri fold flyer Minelab USA had all 3 of my pics. I recovered the class ring, my father the gold plated wax seal stamp and the cool nugget by my customer while we were hunting Oregon.
