    This is some niche stoners dream.

    Table to roll on and for munchies, dark side of the moon lp. Beautiful design to look at.

    Definitely a vibe.

    A complete surround wooden lattice. That would have been great fun to apply furniture wax to. Every other month, until it’s a filled in solid wall

      No way there would be drinks anywhere near that carpet either.

    Back when your electronics where furniture and would take a second person to move in some cases. Goes well with the 100 lbs console TV.

      When you could afford a house, you didn’t have to move to a different apartment every 2 years…

        Can’t even afford an apartment now. Lost my software job and nobody’s hiring. May have to become a dishwasher or something, not sure. Saw a poster for one.

        Edit: sorry, that wasn’t all terribly relevant lol

    Hey I know those end tables. My dad removed the turntable after it broke and we used them to store magazines and coffee table books. One of them was filled with National Geographic magazines.

    A redditor once said of the 1970s, “I cannot overstate how brown everything was.”

    Phonograph consoles always had a lid to open, meaning you couldn’t put anything on the top. These flip out and slide out style units solved a real problem.

      I never understood why modern phonographs had the lid open, it doesn’t make them louder unlike the Edisons and Victrolas of old and is just inconvenient.

          And also nudge the arm past the inevitable skips and scratches. Phonographs in those days generally needed to be running in the open air to minimize aggravation. Even the drum table in this post would have been kept in the open position with the player slid out and accessible when it was in use.
