I think the only notable one I have is an old (1950s?) RCA intercom speaker that came out of my high school during renovations. I was pretty lucky to get this, as only a few of them were rescued and sold at the demolition sale the school held. Picture: The driver inside is not original; it is a newer Quam replacement. It has pretty good sound! It's currently wired up to my Panasonic stereo. ;D

Well, I've got something to add now I guess. Picked up this set of Craig speakers last weekend, like $3 for the set. Don't know anything about them, just wanted something vintagey and VERY cheap to use with the record player I pulled out of the trash last spring during Cleanup Week.

Unfortunately there is no chance of a video at the moment. My record player seized up (again, it was seized when I picked it up so I gotta open it up again) and I don't have anything else to hook them up to. Unless maybe I can pull out my sister's player that's somewhere in the basement. I'll see what I can do.
