Hey moo,
Is the long narrow Victor with the woman looking under the lid a sign or a framed advertisement?
I like it!

You can come sleep on the couch in my basement. Please call and give me heads up... I'll have to move an Amberola 30 and about sixty cylinders that are currently on the couch. Jerry

As a wife, I think it looks lovely but then I am the collector in this house.

As I recall, you're such a smooooth operator, how could she be mad?

Looks to me like you did a great job, but then again, I removed the dining room table & replaced it with a Grafonola Grand...

So much depends on your wifes opinion of gramophones in general...To some , one machine is one too many. To others , to those who at least accept the hobby ,then a few machines are at least tolerated. To us fortunate ones , who have spouses who enjoy the music and the history , its not a matter of how many , but rather how cluttered the living room looks. We've got 17 in our living room , 5 consols and 6 uprights , and she's still talking to me....As long as they stay out of the bath room, and the bed room , we're ok

Jerry, lucky you... There will be no bovine on your couch tonight! She liked it... Other than the record stacks I'm golden.

Gene, that is a fantasy piece I did with my name and old business address on it. Looks old though.

I'd be glad to send you a pdf file with the green area blank if you would like it. Mine is actually printed on a thick card stock.

Hey Jeff, That advertisement looks very familiar! Hmmmm, looks just like one that just showed up on my doorstep a couple weeks ago. You da man! Room looks good, I just keep thinking, maybe one day!
