The Long Playing Records
of the late
Dr. Klaus Stratemann

This webpage is intended to be a quick way to display the late Dr. Klaus Stratemann's long playing record album collection, instead of listing them.

I did this because my time in Germany was too limited to catalogue 2,500 records.

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 doesn't work well with the bright glossy surfaces of some record covers. I didn't notice the blurriness at the time, but most are still readable. Many of the covers also reflect the striped fabric seat I rested 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.
