1959 Grundig Majestic Stereo Ad
« on: June 11, 2021, 1650 UTC »

I was thumbing through a box of free National Geographics for some reading material at my Bay area AirBnB aand noticed the attached ad.  I thought if someone owned said receiver, they might enjoy a copy of the magazine advertisement, from April 1959.  Enjoy.

That's quite expensive adjusted for inflation,  mid 50s -60s in today's money = approximately $3500 to $4000.
 For rich people!
