Califone model 5J-6 classroom record player from 1956
 

Here's a Califone 5J-6 3-tube classroom 3-speed record player that I believe is from 1956. Unlike the Califone that I found a while back that uses a power transformer, this is a cheaper one with a series string chassis (12SQ7, 50L6, and 35Z5). It needs a full restoration; but, I'll take care of that in the near future. So far, this is the oldest piece of Califone equipment that I own and I'm finding out that these older classroom record players are getting harder to find.

Love those Califones.

A nice Califone, and in nice condition. Worthy of a restore.

Nice!

Thank you for the pictures.
