Victrola

Steveston

the workmen's bunkhouse had a spartan interior, yet the manager's house sported wallpaper, and a Victrola record player...album choices were limited in the pre-Rolling Stones era, so on the turntable is a disc of the New World Symphony

I have one of those in my basement and it still works!

Very elegant record player in what looks to be a nice house as well. I guess it paid in those days too to be in management.

So pleasing to see this in the modern era when most folks carry their music around on a cell phone.

Nice old Victrola with this wooden cabinet. The problem with listening to Dvořák's New World Symphony on a 78's is that you need multiple discs resulting in interruptions.
