Polly Phonograph Portable Needle Packet

Post by gramophone78 »

Most of us know about the Polly portable. Has anyone seen the needle packet that the company sold..? I'm surprised they have Polly facing the opposite direction. Most company trade marks are consistent in appearance. I wonder why they did this? I remember many years ago seeing another needle packet on Ebay. Was a needle tin also offered?
Has anyone else seen this needle packet before? I appreciate any information.

Here’s my needle packet with Polly facing the same direction as yours. I hadn’t noticed the difference from the machine decal graphic until you pointed it out. Strange!

Can we please see some clear scans of the booklet/manual you show?
