The Carousel
In 1971 The Carousel was located at

Jewelry Sales. They celebrated their grand opening on April 1, 1971. 8 track
tapes were on sale for only $3.99 each. Stereo Albums were $3.49 to $4.49 with
one special group at $1.27 each. Tape players with detachable speakers on sale
for $59.95 and $99.95. This was just before the age of cassettes. 45 rpm
records were still in demand and the first 500 people to attend each received a
free 45 record.
