Are there any more pictures of this machine?

Post by woundup »

I hope I’m not breaking any forum rules by posting someone else’s photograph without the owner’s permission. Unfortunately, I don’t remember which site I downloaded it from and I have been unable to find it again with a google search.

The machine that interests me is the long necked coin op machine at the left side of the image. In particular, I’d like a better look at the decorative molding on the front of the motor box as it is the closest match I have yet seen to what I believe is missing from the German gramophone that was the topic of my previous thread.

Can anyone identify the manufacturer of this machine? Are there any more photographs? Any information would be of interest.

Regards
Alan

Is that Tino Vanderzwan's collection? I don't know but he had that white walled style room and lots of odd and interesting European machines.

Thanks VanEpsFan1914

I tried googling tino van der zwan and it turns out he has a rather good youtube channel.

However, no sign of that long necked coin op machine as far as I can see.
Surely, somebody knows what it is.

Did you try sending an email along with the picture to ask Tino if it is his machine?

I think if anyone can provide any info on the machine, it will be the owner, and an email is probably the easiest and quickest way establish whether the machine is indeed his.

All his YouTube videos appear to include his email address in the information panel below each video.

Also, try a reverse image search with that picture; it will lead you to whatever website had it. :)

Very odd and interesting machine. I could be totally wrong but I suspect the horn and long neck are from a coin op floor model Concert Automatique
