The Long Playing Records
of the late
Dr. Klaus Stratemann
Page 1
This webpage is intended to be a quick way to display the late Dr. Klaus Stratemann's long playing record album collection
I didn't have the time during my brief stay in Germany to write a list of the estimated 2,500 albums.
These first two pictures show the shelving that holds Dr. Stratemann's collection.

I only had time to photograph the album cover fronts for (if I recall correctly) the top three shelves along the end wall on the far right (of the right hand image). I photographed the rest of the records without taking them off their shelves, then rotated and cropped those images to make their titles and or musicians' names readable.
Some pictures are blurry because the auto-focus isn't good on glossy album surfaces - I didn't notice at the time, but most are still readable. Many covers also reflect the striped fabric of the chair I put the records on to photograph them.
These are low quality thumbnails. Click the thumbnail images to see a larger, better version of each picture in a new window.
