Newbie question on HMV 101
Posted: Thu May 30, 2013 5:00 am
Hi,
Being new to the field off colecting grammophones, and you have to start somewhere. I just bought my second portable grammophone which is a standard HMV 101.But now I wonder why there is a hole in the lid where the records go? Sensible thought to see what records are stored in the lid but the hole seems to small for this. Another thing is that on the right hand corner just behind the arm there is some device in chrome to hold something? But what? The needle boxes I have do not seem to fit.
Thanks for any further info.
