Is this amberola 30 floor stand original/old 3rd party?

Post by Mormon S »

Saw this, and I dont know if this is an originally sold stand, or a stand made for the amberola 30 by a different company, or if it's even phonograph related. Could be home made stand? Either way it fits perfectly, and I think it looks quite good. However, there are no cylinder drawers/holders, which leads me to believe it's not.

It looks home made- the outline of the bottom skirt is clunky. It might be a bedroom stand.

I agree with Estott. I question how the space above the cylinders and below the machine is used or not being used. A cylinder record cabinet would have used the space. Jerry
