His Master's Voice Automatic 1A Exponential Gramophone Demo

Hello All:
Here's a new video, long in coming, of a rather rare HMV 1A Automatic Gramophone.
It's quite a wondrous machine!
I hope you enjoy it.

And here I thought all that I wanted was an HMV202A to sit along side my 193A. The sound of that huge 1A horn is just remarkable. Thanks for posting an excellent video.
