Nice to have the two back together. Was one offered earlier or at the same time?

A special thanks to my friend 1000's of miles from me sending the correct drawer pull ring. Finishes the stand nicely I think.
I was also relieved the hot-air machines fit on the stands....barely.

Tantamount to Blasphemy having Maestrophones sitting on Gramophone company machines! :D

I think the Wood stand was introduced 1901 with the Senior Monarchs, and the "Melba" ca 1903 with the Style 14?

(But I'm told here viewtopic.php?f=2&t=49556 that the #14 is, alas, *not* a Melba?!)

The "Melba" reference is regarding the ebonized stand. Even though the stand was not just offered for a "Melba" Gramophone model, but also for a Style 14 model like yours.
As already mentioned in the other thread.....your machine is not a Melba.
