    Believe it or not, the original purpose of this gadget was to hold 45 rpm vinyl records. The kind with the big hole in the middle. They typically held one song on each side and cost was about $1.00 each. You could stand the records up and pull forward on one to see the label of the record behind it. My only recommendation would be to make some sort of cover to keep the dust off. I'm off the the thrift store for one of my own.

    Cool idea!! I work in a school and I know there are some of those hanging around somewhere that nobody is using. I like that.

    I remember that those racks were for holding the records/alblums.
