Re: Small Machines - Show Us What You've Got...
These little cuties were recent acquisitions.
The blue Excelda was a birthday gift from an antique dealer friend who purchased it at a local auction house. (Auctioneer: "We got some kinda camera here. Can't figure out how it works.")
The fold-up cone for the Parisian was too delicate at the juncture where it attaches to the arm, so I opted not to install it here, although it's still tucked neatly into the lid.
The little Peter Pan portable has been passed amongst several collector friends and actually sounds better than I would have thought. Now it's my turn to own it for a while, and I quite like it.

Not exactly a small machine (the turntable is 12 inches) but the Mag-Ni-Phone is compact.
