This Alfred Hitchcock Presents is about half an hour long, but the first minute or so is the part that I thought was Obsolete blog worthy: it features Alfred Hitchcock talking about how a record player could be made to be much simpler and user friendly. All you have to do is turn it into a gramophone! Duh!
Don’t get me wrong: the rest of the episode is definitely worth watching, too. It features some of my favorite things: journalists on typewriters, big clunky phone receivers, pay phone booths, pinball machines (the old kind sans flippers), and Hitchcock pretending to be a Martian. Or maybe he wasn’t really pretending…
