Did Braun use plastic film capacitors in 1959, or are the brown capacitors paper, covered with molded plastic?

Dear Omer,

these capacitors are paper types, covered with a less durable plastic. They should be tested and replaced if they have a leakage (in my experience, most of them have a bad insulation after decades).

Bernhard
