A 60 year old turntable design is still going strong!

....and to think that ✨My First Turntable✨ was the one I shoulda' kept. :)

Don't remember the initial cart....perhaps a Stanton 681E at the end, since I still have the 'cute' little metal tin the hardware came in...*S* 

Clamp vs. a weight, tho'....Dust bug, lifter...the trifles of the time...
