The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Not a movie or TV show, but a 1985 Sears paint commercial! Unfortunately the audio singing their jingle at the time sounds “canned” and they added this skipping effect like the half nut was out of adjustment!

The last episode of the first season of WESTWORLD includes a scene where the character is winding an Edison Standard cylinder phonograph backwards. Then he does it again.

Just funny, that's all ... James.

There are multple Gramophones including an HMV 157 in George Formby' 1937 movie Feather your Nest.
It is based in a recording studios and there is footage of cutting lathe in action.
Good British Fun with Gramophones.

There's a crapophone in season 6 episode 8 of the TV series Lucifer, now streaming on Netflix. About 3 minutes from the end of the episode, Lucifer pushes a start/stop lever on what's clearly the usual Indian outside horn junk. The record on the turntable is a modern LP. He moves the reproducer over the record - on the wrong side - and never lowers it. The music plays anyway

From a 1974 educational film called “Comin’ Thru The Rye”


WARNING! Edison Standard B ABUSE!!!

Vic II As seen on an episode of Little House On The Prairie. Music sounds fake and canned.

I watched the other day Brief Encounter, the British film of 1945 with Trevor Howard. The theme music of the film is Rachmaninov's second piano concerto, played by Eileen Joyce with the National Symphony Orch led by Muir Mathieson. The director of the film was David Lean. It was adapted from a story by Noel Coward.
After having seen it in the past several times, just the other day I noticed that the woman and her husband listen to the radio on a hmv521 radiogram. It is seen twice in the film.

And the family was very advanced, since the books and show were set in the late 19th century.
