The wonderful sound of some of the old disk players can be astoundingly good.Bill Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649212489891769390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021475418975786274.post-30398818388544794462011-11-05T06:21:14.925+01:002011-11-05T06:21:14.925+01:00I love the juxtaposition of old church architectur...I love the juxtaposition of old church architecture and relatively new vintage technology. Airplanes have come a long way in 100 years - personal jet packs for all in 2111!<br /><br />The whole display is wonderful. I am also fascinated by the projection equipment.<br /><br />Also love the Swissa type face.Dwayne F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07032059161503386028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021475418975786274.post-35765897165415061502011-11-05T01:42:59.790+01:002011-11-05T01:42:59.790+01:00This is great, Adwoa!

The French seem justifiably proud of the Statue of Liberty - it's too bad that Franco-American attitudes are so degraded these days.<br /><br />PS: I recognize your big-font Swissa!
