A revolving multitier combination record storage table and occasional table comprising: a base member; an elongated pole extending vertically upward of said base member; first and second tray means respectively comprising first and second substantially identical discs, each disc incorporating generally planar top and bottom surfaces with the top surface defining an occasional table and with the bottom surface defining a record storage table, each disc having a centrally Disposed journaling bore therethrough of predetermined axial length, said first and second tray means being removably and reversibly journaled for rotation on said pole with said second tray means being journaled at a selected distance above said first tray means; collar means adjustably disposed on said pole immediately beneath said first second tray means for supporting said first and second tray means at adjustable locations on said pole and for providing a bearing surface, with said collar means for said second tray means being disposed on said pole at a distance from the top of the pole that is equal to said predetermined axial length; and wherein each of the said discs includes ring-shaped guide means concentrically disposed on and extending generally normal to said top surface of each disc at different radial distances about said journaling bore, said guide means comprising first and second pluralities of spaced-apart extending fingers, said pluralities of fingers respectively defining a first and second concentric ring, said second ring being disposed at a greater radial distance from said journaling bore than said first ring, with the spaces between each adjacent finger of said respective rings defining slots into which phonograph records can be placed, each slot of said first ring being radially aligned with a corresponding slot of said second ring, and with the normal extension of said fingers of said first ring being greater than the normal extension of said fingers of said second ring.
