Testimonials ⭐
"I've been collecting 45 record adapters and researching the history of
music for years. I enjoyed it enough to take the plunge and write a book
about everything I've collected and learned. It took a couple of years,
but I'm excited to announce that it's now completed and available for
sale. This 10"x10" hard cover book comes with a beautiful dust cover and
is packed with over 900 pictures throughout it's more than 300 pages.
The book will be signed and also comes with a custom record adapter.
This makes a wonderful coffee table book this will definitely draw
attention.
