The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

All...went to an estate sale today and saw a console cabinet that appeared to be designed to hold (and in fact contained) a table model Victrola. The ID tag said it was distributed by Manufacturers Phonograph Co. of New York City. It also had a Lyon & Healy tag on it. Is anyone familiar with it? Never saw one like this and would like to know more about it.

Thanks.

Never saw on either, as far as I know... without pics, who knows?

That's one of the many "off brand" models produced during the teens into the mid-1920s. It's listed on this page, as the maker of the Strand phonograph -- http://www.antiquephono.org/brand-talki ... j-wakeman/

As for Lyon and Healy, seems they're still in business -- https://www.lyonhealy.com/
