Show’N Tell by GE

When I was a little kid growing up in the 70’s, I had this cool record player that also showed slides. It was called the “Show’N Tell”, and it was awesome. I can’t for the life of me remember what stories I had, but it was such fun to listen to the records and have the slides automatically change. I also remember that the little plastic knob on the right came off and I would chew on that sucker while watching/listening to the story.

While the stories were fun, it was hilarious to put a record on, then turn the speed down to 16 rpm, then up through 33, 45 then to chipmunk-style 78 rpm. Maybe even more fun than that was putting an army man on the turntable and cranking that sucker up to 78rpm. Oh the memories!
