From a 1975 film called The Ghoul. since this is an English film I should guess this is some sort of HMV machine?

From the British move "Waterfront" from 1950.

Any idea what model the first one is? Is seems like an electric machine?

Cheers,

David

Just saw this in an episode of 'Jeeves and Wooster': what appears to be an HMV tabletop in a Long Island cottage...
Of course, they didn't shoot the episode in the US; but they might have looked for something more American in appearance.

This looks like a HMV 104 tabletop.

A Grafonola and a Victrola were used in these silent 1920s Our Gang adventures.
