Telefunken Radio Collection


Ever since my uncle played me his 1960 Telefunken Allegro radio as a kid I have been enthralled with their look and their sound. I just love these German radios. Here are several of them. I just purchased the 1956 Opus 7 and had it restored. I also have the Gavotte restored as well. Enjoy.

My Collection of Japanese Hakata dolls

I have been collecting these for about 20 years now. When I find a nice one at a nice price I usually buy it. Most of these were made after WWII. Soldiers stationed in Japan would bring these home as souvenirs.  Now I have a sweet little collection of them. Enjoy.
