Homemade Reproduction Edison Army/Navy Phono. Ohio (CL)

Post by gemering »

Sorry,

This item is a homemade repro.
I did not read the copy, nor look at the photos carefully enough.
Not my cup of tea either way.

Interesting, but please note-the case is a newer fabrication, housing the standard Edison works, as mentioned in the ad copy. The reproducer and inside metal pieces should be nickel-finished.

Great job on the case, but the cheesy and recent Chinese hardware ruins it for me. I mean.....Phillips head screws????
