Not to give any one ideas but here from the February 1947 Popular Sciece Magazine is the Victrola Lid Wheel Barrow. Perahps what remains of that lid the person cut the decal out in a circle did not repurpose the balance of the lid for this project.

Maybe he DID and the kids thereby have a port-a-potty option while getting a ride.

I'd much prefer seeing a wholly-intact phonograph lid (if a bit dinged) used as a fruit tray as opposed to having its decal hack-sawed out and placed in a circular frame. From a distance it looks like the butt end of a beer keg. White trash in the extreme to put stuff like that on one's wall.

Puh-leese, let's not have anyone sending in any photos of phonographs festooned with fuzzy dice...that's the next logical step. :shock:
It could happen......I'm frightened. :coffee:

Yep--It's not far off those guys who turn old records into clocks with dice at the five-minute marks. Maybe some of those will be on sale at Wayne....
