  1930s Vertical Phonograph for Bethelites and Pioneers- of passing interest.

  by Balaamsass2 in

  just thought this might be of passing interest to a few members.

  we were unpacking some estate items from a 1930s bethelite and were confounded by his vertical phonograph.

  lots of old rutherford books, and some trashed rutherford records, but the phonograph was something to behold.

  @BluesBrother I found an answer!

  
  

  Informant July, 1936

  New Phonograph

  Weighs Only 9 3/4 Pounds
  

  
  [...]
  

  
  The phonograph is being placed
  with the company publishers and
  auxiliaries with three discs on a
  contribution of $10.00. If you al-
  ready have records and prefer this
  phonograph it can be had for $8.00.
  Special rates are made for pioneers.
  Order your phonograph now. Keep
  them busy in your regular door-to-
  door witnessing, back calls and loan-
  ing to parties who will use them
  extensively, Have in mind that this
  new phonograph is 5 1/2 pounds lighter
  than our last one.

  Thank you for sharing! I have a morbid love for this history. I want to digitize everything.

  There should be some kind of museum that archives the history of this peculiar religious movement. A neutral source. WT can't be trusted to tell the facts of their own history!

  2. bible

  a new video on jw org tv titled do not hold a grudge is presented by gb's oldest member gerrit losch.this is just another representation of the standard of talks prepared and given by the highest level of authority and position within the jw organization.

  they desperately need help, not even their complete rebranding can save them from themselves.some of this gb member's gems about holding a grudge include -.

  - what can lead to a grudge?

  2. experiences

  well, thats it folks.. my identity on here has been rumbled and reported to the elders.

  someone, somehow, has figured out that im a member of this site and - rather than speak to me - has promptly reported me to the elders.

  i just feel sad for my daughter.

  "So you mean to tell me that someone confessed to you (the elders) that they were browsing Apostate websites... and you want to meet with ME? They assured you I was on there, but have no proof? You'll accept testimony from someone who admittedly 'hides what they are' and 'eats at the table of demons'?"

  I am Pale Emperor.

  Thank you Saltheart Foamfollower, that is an excellent point.

  It was posted to other forums at the same time. Example: https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/4ogmio/20160610_transfer_of_shipping_activities_from/

  I saw mention of this letter shortly there after in forums that are non-english language.

  No Reason For JWs To Go To The MIdweek Meeting (CLAM)

  by JW_Rogue in

  2. experiences

  everything that is done at the midweek meeting can now be done at home.

  the videos are online, the first talk is scripted, the bible highlights are scripted.

  you could get the same experience by just reading and watching the material from your tablet.

  There are official video recordings made of the Meetings in several languages that the infirm can watch at home. Beta Test for the rest?
