I remember dudes carrying big boomboxes on their shoulders, haven't seen a boombox like you describe for years, sorry. BTW, I remember a punk rocker looking guy throw a boom box against the wall of a disco a couple decades ago, it was kind of funny :).

I think those things were invented and endorsed by the battery manufacturing industry.

I think kids still do that but rarely do I see it here in New York.

I see those at Garage sales often, I did not know that there were people that collected them. Remember that Spike Lee movie? I think it was "any which way you can" Or maybe that's the title for that early 80s (god can't think today) dirty harry actor guy movie.
Anyways...in the Spike Lee movie there was Radio Raheem, he had that monstrous boom Box that would blast out Public Enemy's "1989".
