The system I had was, I'm pretty sure, made by Pertec.  I 
still have the manuals for it, and curiously they don't list 
ANY manufacturer in the title block.  It was a really small 
thing, about 19 inches wide and 12 inches tall, with a 
fairly stock spring-arm 9 track drive with 7" tape reels.

I couldn't find the listing on eBay.
