[QUOTE="Geoff1946, post: 486820, member: 28452"] Oh, the stuff I was given when young, which I played with, studied, dismantled and disposed of, without ever thinking of their technology heritage value! I was always interested in technology from an early age and can recall having some early 1900s telephones in mahogany boxes, a photo projector device of similar age; I plugged it in and the lamps blew because they were 110volt! A 1920s battery radio, sadly lacking valves, which I now know I could obtain. Numerous vintage mains radios came my way, which I learned to repair and eventually even sold one or two for a profit, when hard up, but many more I would love to still have. Finally I couldn't say how many TV22/TV24 bakelite cased TVs I must have dumped! Sought after collectors items now. [/QUOTE]
