Hello phonograph collectors
I just picked up an Amberola 1A in oak serial# 3137
Does anyone have info on this machine as to year built.
Thanks VTLA Mark

Approximately 3500 IAs were built, so yours is relatively late production. It dates from late 1910/early 1911.

That is an extremely nice figured oak cabinet...
