Something priceless

 
This is an old-school Sony voice recorder machine.  I would call it vintage, except I did some research and found out that most old recorder machines are now rendered pretty much priceless, which is a euphemistic way of saying "worth nothing even if it still works".  Which sucks, because this one still works.  It belongs to my mother, and it belonged to her father before her.  It's sort of like a family heirloom, except not. 

Currently I have been trying to sell this voice recorder on the behalf of my mother, as she is trying to downsize and this particular model has been cluttering up our storage room for a coon's age, which is a hillbilly way of saying "a really, really long time."  The problem is that this particular model is unique.  That is, I can't find it anywhere on the internet, even EBay, so chances of it finding a warm and loving home are looking slim to none.

Which is why it is currently sitting in the garage sale pile.  And if no one claims it there, it will head towards the dump.  The stinky, heartless, lonely dump.  Does anyone out there have a heart and want a priceless unique vintage voice recorder?  I'm sure it has at least another coon's age left of life.
