[NJARC] The first stereo?

[George B. Shields, Jr.]

Exactly, I had alot of fun with mine. The motors are authentic as removed 
from a suitcase model HMV unit from the 30's. The woodwork is decently 
crafted but the finish is quick and sloppy. Nonetheless, for what they are, 
they are alot of fun and serendipity. I never thought they were a bad thing, 
just need to be accurately described.

I wound up trading mine to an antique dealer I was buying our AMI jukebox 
from. I ended up getting my money back on it by deductinfrom the cost of the 
juke..........
