DESCRIPTION:Offered here is the iconic,highly collectible, original 1970s Heller Giotto StoppinoVinyl Record Holder, a striking example of Italian modernist design from one of the most influential eras of plastic household objects - the "Plastic Fantastic" era. This sculptural organizer is instantly recognizable for its bold geometric form, architectural lines and striking canary yellow colorway - an essential piece for collectors of mid-century and post-modern design.

This rack is perfectly sized to hold 12" vinyl LPs, and 45 singles and interlocks with additional racks, making it a highly coveted accessory for audiophiles and collectors, though it functions equally well for magazines or architectural files.CONDITION:I am the original owner, and the holder has been carefully kept for decades.
This item is in Excellent Vintage Condition.
Structural Integrity: Excellent. There are no cracks, chips, fractures, repairs or broken parts. The plastic retains its sturdy, robust feel. All partitions are strong and firmly in place.
Surface: As a genuine vintage item used in a home setting, it exhibits surface scratches, scuffs, and shelf wear consistent with 50+ years of use. These are only visible upon very close inspection but generally unnoticeable and do not detract from the overall aesthetic impact of the piece.
Color: The yellow remains vibrant and glossy. There is some very light, uniform color fading/mellowing (only at the top and front edges of the piece) consistent with age and light Giotto Stoppino
