Thank you so much! ...Oh Sandra, you're awesome! Thank you so much! I have a Crosley 5 in 1 beast, which is great & it even looks vintage. Collecting records is a dangerous thing...once someone finds out, you'll be "given" all their cast offs...lol. I see the jewelry box dancers in this, now that you mention it, good eye! <br />Haha it's all for the mental image of playing records on hand cranked gramophone!<br /> So glad you are back!Acorns from Elmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00457027521502812904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243971442504216858.post-85783773123728455812013-10-17T19:04:10.148-07:002013-10-17T19:04:10.148-07:00omg!! this is hands down the best vintage thing i&...omg!! this is hands down the best vintage thing i've seen in while! and that coming from a gal who's looking at old shit. a lot.<br /><br />it's really funny you posted this, as i've been getting into record collecting more lately and getting a few new 78s. what type of record player do you have? my portable one paradoxically plays 78s and 45s but for some reason the 33rpm setting is fucked.<br /><br />but again - best.thing.EVER. it almost reminds me of magnet figurines from jewelry music boxes i used to see as a kid, only a million times cooler.<br /><br />it's kinda weird the 33rpm works better for them, but maybe they were best observed on a hand cranked gramophone? ok that doesn't make sense but it creates a nice mental image for me.Sandra https://www.blogger.com/profile/00944353297734288552noreply@blogger.com
