I've got a better one; I'm going to design one with a gramophone, cylinder player/recorder, mechanical scanning disc television and dual vacuum tube wireless receivers (one for the 'TV' signal and one for the sound, of course 8-)), that projects lantern slides through the phonograph horn. Truly a more authentic vintage "entertainment center" than the Chinese version... :lol:

I'll be very interested in buying that, but only if it also has a wire recorder... :)
