Valentine's Day 1980

WAHT tape

Here is a cassette recording of the Valentine's Day show on WAHT in Lebanon, PA from 1980. In this segment, listeners could call the station and leave a special "love message" which would be played on the air. The DJ is none other than the legendary Joey Welz.

Three Voice-O-Graph Records

Voice-O-Graph
This is a set of three Voice-O-Graph records I picked up recently at a local flea market. Produced by the Mutoscope Corporation, these 6” coated cardboard records were made in small booths similar to the picture booths found at most arcades. This set plays at 78rpm although later Voice-O-Graph records can be at 45 or 33 1/3rpm. These booths were in operation up until the mid 70's, at least that's the last time I can recall seeing one. Click here to see photos of an old Voice-O-Graph booth and scans of Voice-O-Graph ads.

Mr. Bill's School Days Calendar

Mr. Bill's School Days 1982 Calendar
This is the 1982 “Mr. Bill's School Days” calendar which came with an Eva-Tone Soundsheet flexi. I had received this as a Christmas gift in 1981. When I think of all the stuff I've held on to and how long I've managed to hold on to it...

"Say a few words to your public"

Maxell Micro Cassette

I found this micro-cassette today at a local flea market. Although most of the tape is pretty dull, the first 17 seconds is somewhat amusing.
