Brilliant!

Every family I knew in the 70's had one of these

I can also recall playing around with soldiers in the back of next doors open backed huge TV set Dangerous!

Remember my aunty having one the size of a sideboard. My cousin used to tell me it was Dracula's coffin and make the lid creak.

Re: 1970's radiogram

The one that Jess and Koukou said was most like theirs must have been really popular at the time as ours was like that too !!

Come on though girls - it was a STEREOgramme - state of the art

Re: 1970's radiogram

Dansettes were Mono, the big cabinet ones were Stereo.
We had a little blue & white dansette..That was in the house before I was born and I used to up until about 1980

Re: 1970's radiogram

This one was mine - I bought it myself out of my savings when I was thirteen - much to my mum's disgust (Fancy wasting money on one of those things !!) Mine was a brown colour though.



(and why not Daz ?? If it worked, and you loved it - rock on !!)
