Pathé rooster restoration - final update

Post by Curt A »

I finally completed three restorations on three different variations - two different ones on 10" record bases and one on a 12" record base. They are pictured together under an original C.H.Thompson Nipper oil painting.

I also found a stereo view showing TAE's personal Pathé rooster... :D

I fell to the joke, until I realized that the photo was in sepia, and the rooster was red!
