Mighty Tiny Sound!

 Today I'm going to share something I picked up at an estate sale a few years ago, just because I thought it was cool! It's this unopened package of Mighty Tiny records!

This little card contains four records made for the Mighty Tiny record player. The Mighty Tiny was made in 1967 and was, in fact, a fully functioning record player that fit in the palm of your hand. The records came in a variety of genres, this card being "Dixieland & Jazz." It's tempting to open the card, but since other unopened cards are going for about a hundred bucks on eBay, while opened records go for about 30 bucks for four, I shant. 

What I'd really like to do is get a player to go with them. Again, they run for about a hundred bucks, so as much as I'd like one, I'm not rushing out to buy it. However, in my quest to be complete in my blog, I offer these pictures of a genuine (not mine!) Mighty Tiny record player!

This is it closed. It looks like the whole top is a speaker.

This is the inside. I think there's supposed to be a battery door on there, but I'm not sure. The design is pretty cool because the clamshell keeps the record in place no matter how you carry it. It really is portable!

Anyway no matter if I ever get the player or not, I have an unopened pack of four cool records! By the way, I'm pretty sure these are the same players (or close to them) as the players in the games "Voice of the Mummy" and "Seance."

Until next time, keep searching for treasure!
