The JBL Century 100 speakers are done..

I restored a pair of early L100's from their painted black glory. The paint was removed using Circa brand remover. Put it on a for a few minutes, up to four or so, then start peeling away with a flat edged and wide metal trowel. Once removed, lightly sand then oil. The front baffle was painted using pitch black flat paint of the latex variety. three coats later, she's looking good. I need to sand the front top edges then oil the sides. New speaker connectors (3 way binding posts) were installed to replace the chincy connectors JBL used with the masonite backer. The backer is removed and replaced with proper connectors, higher quality and better sound.

Lifesize autographed Kate Bush poster and more..

 

1985-I met Kate Bush at a party thrown by EMI Canada at the King Edward Hotel in Toronto. At that time, Kate signed a promo cover of Hounds Of Love. I then mounted it on this poster which stands about 5'. This is a one of a kind poster given that it has the attached signature etc.. It is signed in gold coloured ink. It is laminated onto a semi hard cardboard backer so this can not be rolled up. Local sale only in Toronto.  best offer

Autographed BB. King framed poster

From $1

Table of contents
No headers
  I met BB King at a record signing at the now defunct Tower Records at Yonge and Queen St. back in 1997 when Deuces Wild[1]came out. I framed it as shown and it is mounted on a cardboard backer under glass in a gold coloured aluminum frame. It is indeed signed in black marker by BB King. Which, as mounted makes this a one of kind poster.  Tower Records since closed their door in Toronto, however, it is possible for me to prove validity of the autograph via other N.A. Tower locations that can confirm he did an instore. 
Framed in gold aluminum with matting and glass.
