Here are a few pictures of my Wilson horn that could have been fitted to a Balmain.
It appeared on the Antique Road Show in an antique shop in Aberystwyth. I tracked it down and bought it thinking someday I will try and build a Balmain type gramophone. One day!.
It is 54” long and with the Lifebelt is 56”
