Wow. I loved JC Whitney catalogs when I was younger, in the late 80's. I read them for hours upon hours. It's remarkable to see the prices. This was before all U.S. manufacturing was moved to China (Bill Clinton). This movement wasn't the only factor. Technological advancements were another factor. For example, check the tape decks for $350. Dang.
Viewing this catalog is definitely a trip back in time. A Wayback experience for sure. God bless the uploader of this. Great stuff. 5 Stars
