[Jukebox-list] 1952 Library Unit

[Jackie]

Thanks Jay,
I apprecitate all your imput.  I can always count on a great response and 
really I do take them all into consideration.  It helps to put things into 
prospective.  I think for now I will pass on this Library Unit.  I think 
someday it would be cool to own, however the big box is the one I really 
love.
Jackie
