strange needle case ??

Post by crankin »

Hello,

Currently on ebay is an odd item described as an antique Victrola multiple size phonograph needle case. It does not look like a phonograph product to me, but what is it? Any ideas?

Thanks,
David

It's not. It's for sewing machine needles. Just another uninformed Ebay seller.... :roll: :lol:.

*Edit* Apparently it's for piano pins... :oops:. Still not a Phonograph related item.. ;).

I have one of these and someone on the forum said it had something to do with piano tuning. :)

Well now......http://howardpianoindustries.com/piano- ... re-filled/

Make a damned good needle case though. Spear point, tungs tone, soft, medium and loud. Bamboo etc.
