"How Boomboxes Got So Badass"

Those were the days! Paint highlights and all.

I was in a vintage 50s/60s store the other day … the store owner said her parents hated that era but that she loved it (probably due to Mad Men and other things). It got me hoping that in another 20-30 years, there will be more of an accepted cool factor to the stuff from the 1980s and 1990s like these. Of course, by then, it might be harder to find an old boombox for $5 at Salvation Army.
