Nothing old fashioned about linoleum Mags.

Such memories! I started my apprenticeship in the mid 50s and was a TV engineer right up until retirement. How big and heavy the TVs of those times were. Solid cabinets combined with a heavy chassis, huge transformers, massive loudspeakers, some were lethal. mains energised too. Plus the extra hazard of extremely high voltages involved. 7 thousand AC and around 25 thousand DC. Those were exciting days.

As it happens we have two wind up gramophones, both free standing. We still have the discs.
