Pick-up truck



To understand this play on words I have to give you a lesson in the Dutch language.
One of three words we use for record player,besides ...yes record player(transl. in Dutch:platenspeler)is pick-up.The other one is turntable(transl. in Dutch:draaitafel).
So therefore a car fully loaded with turntables is a pick-up truck....
Anyway,last weekend I collected a lot of turntables from a secondhand record dealer.
There were 23 to be precise,with a few CD players and cassette recorders thrown in.Among them were four Duals and two Lenco's,the rest were the regular Sony's and Philips'.
One of the CD players was a 1983 Marantz,which I will post a picture of later.
