NOS RCA portable record player and Beatles disk go case record holders with many 45's

Hi you tube friends. I got this portable player off ebay still in the box with all the packing foam and instructions.The model is VPP16N in Dandelion yellow, its so clean and works fine. I thought since it matched my yellow Beatles disk go case and so many remember getting Beatles records for Christmas I would make a video. I bought the red & white case at a flea market years ago from a man who had all fishing items on his table along with the case which was selling for $15.00 !! I hope you enjoy it !!

Cool record player! I'm guessing that this model RCA portable record player dates from the late 60's. I have an RCA VPP21Y portable record player/AM Radio that was made in 1970. It has a round body with a red and white plaid cloth pattern with a carrying strap made from the same material. It also comes with a fog white top. It's designed to look like a bit like a hat box. Are you familiar with this model? It seems like a fairly rare model since I haven't seen many around.

@blackwaxjh I have the same model but with a different color cloth, its red & yellow. Fun!!

@desoto1961 Awesome Desoto! Actually I made a mistake when I wrote my post last night. Mine also has the same red, yellow, and green cloth on the body and carrying strap. I originally got mine as my first record player for Christmas a few days before my third birthday. A few years later, I accidently snapped the tonearm off, and it was discarded. Luckily I found another one on eBay. It needs a new idler wheel. Do you know where I can find a replacement, or someone who can refurbish the original?

@blackwaxjh West Tech services rebuilds them.

@desoto1961 Thank you very much. I'll definitely check them out. BTW, have ever posted a video of your VPP 21Y record player here? I'd love to see yours in action. :)

Fine machine. Fine taste in music. I had the honor of watching Sir Paul last summer in Nashville.

Too funny when you look back on the one sentence article shown here (5:23) about the Beatles having two hit songs on the Top Ten list. I can remember how I would scurry off to the record dept. when my mother was shopping at any store chain and look for any old or new 45 record of the Beatles. Fond memories.
