I'd want to see the inside. It's not impossible, but such cabinets were also popular for sheet music- and in bedrooms they could hold the water pitcher and chamber pot.Jerry B. wrote:Is the cabinet even meant for a talking machine? Jerry

It could very well be a phonograph cabinet!

Re: Columbia BZ disc machine
I Emailed Leo, and he said that he was not going to purchase the machine, so he sent me the link:

I called the number, and the seller said that the bottom was a liquor cabinet!
Too Bad!
