My paternal grandfather had a floor model Victrola.

I wanted it in the worst way and asked him about it. He told me if my father didn't it would be mine someday. He passed when I was 10 and I figured we would move it very soon. Next time we went to his house only two weeks or so later my $^%#&*#$# cousin had thrown it out!
Grandfather loved it, father didn't want it, grandson wanted it...grandson's (me) children have no desire to have any of my gear. Go figure.
Maybe if I live long enough to have grandkids...nah. Fugeddaboutit.
