While browsing Ebay France I happened upon this ad for a Thomson Duplex. It looks to me like a rebadged Premier Duplex. Has anyone seen a rebadged Premier in person, of this era?

Thomson in France was originally the French sister company of General Electric in the United States. Since GE made Premier vacuums in the states, I think this was really just the French version of it rather than a rebadge.
Also, this is the same Thomson that took over GE and RCA electronics after the late 1980s. |
