"Stunning" HMV Front Mount Crap-O-Phone

Post by Curt A »

Stunning HMV Gramophone

'His Masters Voice'

Definitely shows some age - not a modern reproduction complete with windup handle and seems to be mechanically functioning perfectly

Collection from London

The reproducer was specially made for playing 78s that were recorded backwards... :lol:
