The difficult part of
creating this page was choosing which Dansettes in my
collection to photograph and use. The next picture will
show you how we manage to overcome the problem of storing
them around the house. We use every possible spare corner
we have. Recently we even had to block off a door into the
lounge to free a corner spot. About half the collection
has ended up in the loft. Every now and then we decide to
exchange one or two with those on display, and at the same
time give them a bit of a clean! |
The
next pictured Dansette is one of my favorites as it is quite unique. We
bought it from someone locally. John my boyfriend went to look at it one
day when I was at work. He came home with much more than he had bargained
for! We were now the proud owners of a red Dansette Major which was still
in the original cardboard box from the manufacturers, Margolin at "Plus-a-Gram"
house in Old Street, London.! It was in excellent condition and as an
extra bonus the guy selling it let John persuade him to part with a red
Dansette Junior, the first one we had seen! In the picture the Major is in
the middle, with an early "Plus-a-gram" above it and the
Dansette Junior on the floor.
