Mystery phonograph

Post by Hyperion »

Can anyone tell me who made and/or sold this? I can't find any identification on it anywhere.

Is there a view that shows lettering, if any, on the reproducer?

You're right. It reminds me of this style, which appeared on some Pathé uprights; they certainly are not the same design, but they do give something of the same effect. I wouldn't think a machine with such hardware could be a Pathé product, though.
