linguaphone gramophone 1925??

Any idea what is missing from the attachment on the front corner ? I assume it may have had some sort of repeating device ??[/quote]


yea i know what was there, there was a slide rod there the little lever on the soundbox/reproducer would be on the slide rod and you could push the lever down and slide left or right to repeat the sentence or skip a bit

i have seen this machine about 15 years ago in an auction complete with a canvas cover for the case and all the extra's there

since the last reaction i have found out that there where machines for sale and there where rentals i think this was a rental since a normal entertaining machine wouldn't need all these extra gizmo's

since the waveola revelation i'm pretty convinced that the machine is from 1923 since the waveola who clearly produced the case (type) for this gram, in the year 1921 -unsuccessfully- so after this a re-issue or takeover is possible by lingua,
by the way it also came with a (schoolhouse type) table

and cover
