Phonos at the Nethercutt

[callron]

In addition to a wonderful vintage automobile collection at the Nethercutt Museum in Sylmar, California,
there is a great collection of 1800-early 1900 mechanical musical instruments and reproducing machines.
Here are a couple of early phonographs. One uses a paper diaphragm for it's speaker.
I didn't get the name or model of either. If you know, please post.

The top machine is a Victor R, with the dead giveaway being the oxidised copper corners and metal motorboard. The bottom one is a c. 1924 HMV table gramophone with Lumiere diaphragm.

(At least I think that's what these machines are!)

The Nethercutt Museum sounds like a neat place. I love visiting places like that.

That’s an HMV 460.
