I had a bit of bother with the bottom row - bottom right are chalk holders, apparently - go figure...

I recognise the 8 track car stereo, but I never actually had one.

Not recognising number 4 ?

My wife said to me "you haven't been listening to a word I've said for the last 5 minutes".

I though, what an odd way to start a conversation...

I'm guessing drive-in movie speaker, hang extension inside the car. (?)

Spot on Mike.
Philosophers have only interpreted the world - the point, however, is to change it. No it isn't ... maybe we should leave it alone for a while.

Bottom left looks like a pedicure set? Nut picks? (stop that at once, Dave...)
Middle one? Slow cooker?

No, no. Didn't you see a set like that in a Bond film where Bond was threatened by a villain with a set like that after Bond had offed the villain's mentor? It's a villain's torture set. It was in the film where Bond blew a lot of things up and raced a BMW around. Hmmm. That doesn't pin it down very much. I've no idea what some of the other stuff towards the bottom is, though. I thought the loudspeaker was a bird scarer.

The Zenith thingy with 4 buttons is an early TV remote control using ultrasonics?

Think so, I was told (by an American) thing on the left of it is a nut cracker.

Yep, or electric fryer.
