Re: What is this record cabinet?
Not sure, but it looks like something with real potential. The lines suggest Herzog to me.

It could be a Udell or a Herzog, both made a cabinet that looks like this one.

It would be nice to see the insides but it looks like it has tons of potential. Jerry

Re: What is this record cabinet?
It looks like a Herzog No.832. An original catalog illustration is shown on page 90 (Fig. 2-87) of Phonographica. An actual example is pictured on page 189 (Fig. 4-45) of Antique Phonograph Accessories & Contraptions. The next model up was the No.833 in which all 4 sides were rounded. There are photos of one of these here:

That No.832 would be very nice when restored. Good luck!

I checked Gadgets, Gizmos & Gimmicks, but did not think to look in Phonographica.

Re: What is this record cabinet?
That veneer will look fairly spectacular once it's been properly restored. The paw feet are very nice also. Just the kind of record cabinet I'd love to find myself.
