Ok I guess this is my best example of a “phonospace”.

Andy it seems like listening to the credenza is difficult? Those are some nice machines though!

Re: Phonospace (or, "Where's Waldo?)
In your relatively short time collecting, you've managed to get some nice machines that took me many years to find. But then, when I started, there was no internet, so you had to get out and find whatever happened to be in the area. Antique shows, flea markets, garage & estate sales, newspaper classifieds, Michigan Antique Phonograph Society functions, (now part of APS), and of course Union. Until the internet, I never found a new machine while sitting at my kitchen table. In some ways, it was more fun the "old way".dzavracky wrote: ↑Thu Jun 10, 2021 1:31 pm Hi everyone,
I know I already posted my collection in April of last year, but since then the room has changed quite a bit. Hopefully this will be how the room will stay for awhile... I really need to stop buying them (My girlfriend is laughing at me while I am writing this)
So here is my phonograph room! I got the credenza on Tuesday.. I will make a post about it when I have some more time.
Cheers,
David
Anyway, enough about how old I am. You have a really nice collection!!!

Regarding the fabled Jerry’s Basement, we must assure safe fore-knowledge of its ancillary room, the utterly terrifying Jerry’s Basement’s Bathroom.

This is just the edge of the kitchen. The display case contains toy bank safes and toy cap guns as well. The chest is new for me and full of cylinders. I was going to put another phonograph on top of the cabinet, but the cat immediately claimed that space for her own and refuses to negotiate the matter.

Sorry about the redundant posts. I wasn't aware of this topic. I love to see the machines and displays that people have. These were taken today, music room and the new annex.

I love the "Paris Green" horn...
