Two shots, found separately, of The Great Stone Face with his Victor Hyperion 15-1 Electrola.
I wonder what happened to it.

Re: Buster Keaton's Hyperion!
Keaton lost everything in his 1932 divorce and his mansion went up for sale in 1933. Various people lived there (Cary Grant & Barbara Hutton, Marlene Dietrich)but in 1949 everything was put up for auction- and by that time the Hyperion would have been hopelessly outdated.
