    Great thread deech, I'm not sure if any of these were posted on the last thread, everyone seems to using a boombox these days.

    What is this BOOMBOX 2: RC550 for the left-handed? :crazy
    Never ever seen this model, is this for real? Looks like flipped image, but JVC logo looks right: Photoshop in action!...:hmmm

    One of the rarest models, the left handed RC-550 was supposedly made for a gentleman that could only hold his beer with his right hand, thus giving him the ability to also enjoy his beer and boombox.

    I spotted this while browsing LPs in a Charity Shop. Not a Boombox but there weren't many around in 1973 when this was released.
    I love the 1970s look of the photo. Mum looks like a normal 1970s Mum. Dad is stuck in 1967 dreaming of being on the Sgt Pepper Album cover.
    The boy with the Radio Cassette is probably around the same age as me.

    The Double Album was all Classical tracks like Beethoven. The original WH Smith price label was £4.35.
    That would have been a huge amount in 1973 about £50 in today's money.
    Of course it may have been bought later as it isn't the type of album to go out of fashion
    (unlike Dad's clothes)
