Craigslist: Victrola converted to chest

Post by estott »

A Brunswick console converted to a cedar chest. It actually looks pretty nice!

Considering what they did, it is a good job, but someone this clever with tools could have just made an entire cedar chest. So, my response is WAAHH![thead]:cry:[/thead]

"This Antique Victrola from approximately 1910-1930 was emptied and lined with Cedar. It Smells Terrific!"

Yes, it probably does smell good but not as terrific as the insides of an old, original talking machine. I just LOVE the smell inside of an old Victrola and have since buying my first machine so many years ago.
