Unusual music table
Was looking for an appropriate table to display a cylinder machine and was lucky enough to pick this one up for $18. 1920s? 30s?

Pretty table. I would be leery of putting any kind of heavy cylinder machine on it. It looks too spindly. I would worry, especially if it had a tilt top.

Re: Unusual music table
Seconded. Those things are usually lightweight and flimsy, especially when the wood and glue have all dried out. Lay your records on it, and that's about it.howardpgh wrote:Pretty table.
