Most Awesome 1940's home entertainment system ever?
Hi Bob, Don't know why I thought you didn't have to rebuild pot metal parts; guess I got my wires crossed talking with other folks about other changer / cutting-lathe restorations - Wow, that makes the job even more impressive. I'm "blacknwhite" on the radio forum. Glad you made it over...- Cousin Hepcat

I generally can't STAND 1970's-style cinema (more into 30's and 40's), but this is just Hilarious (for all the WRONG reasons), because they take...- Cousin Hepcat

Most Awesome 1940's home entertainment system ever?
Me too. I bumped into this guy in an antique audio gear restoration forum & we talked about it some. Everything Lizzie & Forgotten Man said is spot-on. But add to that, not only the plastic parts are made of an unstable material, but also some of the working metal parts of this particular...- Cousin Hepcat

Netflix has it... wondering if anyone who's seen it thought it was worth 2...- Cousin Hepcat
