Here's my machine from my flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/10758068@N ... /lightbox/ I think you can get access to a few more shots from it. It's well built with a very long tin horn. Mine is missing the original soundbox but has a period installed electric pickup.
Thanks for the link! It is a nicely put together machine. I particularly like the '£' sign stamped into the needle holder. Is it a double-spring motor, do you know?
No, just a single spring, though well built. The model designation is "Fortonette" and the decal reads Parlophone so I think it was intended for the UK market.
