This is Interesting! When I googled Wightman Electronics, Inc Easton, Maryland the pictured “ Call of the Wild portable Record Player Predator Caller” 1962 trademark information came up! This portable player ran off of 12 D cell batteries and required a portable speaker. Five records were included with “all animal calls”. Do you remember where this company was in Easton? Can you identify the two employees? What animals did these broadcasted recordings draw in? Photo from the Talbot Historical Society’s Laird Wise Collection.
