This is a nice photo of an old phonograph collector sitting lonely in the midst of his well ordered treasures.

Egad!
I just saw myself in twenty years!
That does it - tomorrow I'm definitely taking a long ride on the bicycle...

Many of my phonographs are in my living room near the 50" TV so people have to be around me!!!

I would call him "lonely". I'd call it a good way to spend a rainy Sunday in Oregon. Jerry

I wouldn't call him "old" either. He has more hair than George and I combined. Anonymous Guest

We'll have to get together for a ride George Paul. I have always said summer is for cycling and winter is for phonographs and woodworking. (OK, raining summer days are for phonographs and woodworking too
)

I don't know, he could probably have an entire additional shelf if they were more practically spaced.
