Then, she said it had not been used in years. I told her that this was probably from the '69-'71 era, was a photofinished particleboard cabinet, and the only thing I'd do with it was use it for parts. I told her I might go as high as $15 for it and she said she'd get back in touch with me if she decided to let it go for that.

I can't tell what brand it is; but, it's likely a store brand and it looks to have a BSR record changer. Looking at the picture, the cabinet looks pretty ragged to me and parts of the cabinet look to be warped.

After you scavenged whatever parts you could offa it, you could build yrself a DANDY Bon-type Fire w/the fuggin' thing.. Don't know if I'd wanna roast Weinies over it-Who knows what kind of "Particles" are in that particle board, not to mention what glues they used...The early Seventies ? Yeah, that was B4 the environmental laws kicked in, for the most part, who knows WHAT horrible concoctions were/are in it..
