Both models are described in "His Master's Gramophone" on pages 91 to 93.
The machines pictured in the book are Models 15 and 210, but apart from their electric motors they are identical to the 14 and 200.

Yes. That is the only reference I have too.
I have come across a mahogany version of the HMV 14. It is complete apart from missing the tonearm assembly. I was hoping someone with an HMV 14 would post pictures of the "Gooseneck, wide bore with tapering gooseneck". The gramophone is in poor condition but with a little TLC should come up nicely. The few gold bits that are remaining are peeling off in flakes so I can't tell if they were shiny or matte. It weighs a tonne.
Anyone have a spare tonearm for it....just lying around?

Would like to see pics of your machine. Which kind of interior does your machine has? Do you have the original albums?

If you still need information i could post pics of the tonearm...

Regards

Yes please post some pictures of the tonearm. No albums in mine. I'll take a few pics tomorrow and try and post them soon.

Thank you Jacob.

Here are some pictures. It's in a bit of a mess. The cabinets needs quite a bit of work and the only thing missing is the tonearm & reproducer. The large 4 spring motor runs fine. I'd love to see a picture of a complete one especially with the albums.

Here are the pics of the tonearm an the the tonarm assembly. The tonarm is 23,5 cm long.
It´s not a screw as on later models that holds the tonearm. It´s a simple pin!

Unfortunatly I don´t have the original albums.

For what purpose is the cut-out circle lined with green felt?
