Hi Beoworlders,

I've just had an invitation to view what is possibly the UKs best collection of vintage B&O gear and I can take my video camera to record it!  Is this something that would interest anyone here?

We are talking 1930's "Butcher's Block" radios, Bakelite microphones, pre-war wire recorders, 1950's open-reel video recorders, Beowatches, quadraphonic turntables, plus all sorts of weird and wonderful B&O curiosities......and the best of it is that the owner is considering offering some of the items for sale in the near future. Lets have a Party !!!

Please let me know what you think - if there is enough interest then I will get this arranged with the owner of the collection and upload the tour to YouTube in the next few weeks.

Kind regards, Steve.

Hi Beolit 39,

I guessed from your user name that you would be interested - appropriately, there are several Beolit 39 variations in the collection Big Smile

Kind regards, Steve.
