Original Sony Walkman Was First Sold Here

This building has been replaced. In Winter 1981, I worked in the Sound Systems store there. We were the first store in Philly to get the Sony Walkman. I think it cost $249. Doctor J. and some other 76ers came in to buy them to listen to on their plane trips.
