Pics of Early Collectors

[Schlick]

I'm going through my father's photographs one last time.
I've found ~25 [so far] of collectors from the 60's on up...
Would they best be posted in "Parlor?"

Would be nice to put names to the faces. One guy is on crutches.... must have dropped a machine on his foot.
Wait!!...are those bologn-a-phone's on the table being served with Schlitz & Old Milwaukee beer???.....

To answer your question....the "Parlor" is for non-Phonograph related posts.....which this certainly isn't. So keep them coming.

But this IS phonograph- related, so I'd just start a thread here.

If anybody should ask for the definition of nerds, just sent this picture.
