About This Item

For Those About To Rock

This Travel Bug's Hitchhiker is a Sony WM-10 Walkman containing a cassette tape of the AC/DC album: For Those About To Rock (We Salute You). The Walkman is non-functional, but the tape still plays. Post a picture from wherever you go to rock. It doesn't have to be a Cafe.

I believe the WM-10 is Sony's smallest Walkman ever. Empty and folded, it's not much larger than a cassette tape box. It was sold in 1983. Sony re-invented the electric motor to make this product. It ran on ONE AA battery! I've kept it this long because it's such an engineering feat.

Plenty of hard rocks up here in the NH wilderness, but maybe not quite what Blazerman had in mind. Oh well ...
