The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Is the glass pull used on A-200 Edison Disc Phonograph the same as the pull used on A-275/SI-19 cabinets, and is it a stock pull used on other furniture or is it unique to those products? Can someone post detailed photos of a glass pull? Better still, anyone have an extra available?

From an A290.

Thanks, Bruce! It appears to be a different pull than the one that's on the A-200 that Disillusionist picked up on Craigslist. I'm only looking on my phone now so am not seeing in the greatest detail.

John it looks the same as this one on an A275 that Zwebie had for sale some time back, link below, but I cannot tell for sure.

Thanks again! That pull looks the same as the pull on the A-275, pretty sure.

For what it's worth, here's the pull on my recently acquired A200. Judging by the lightened ring around the base, I'm having doubts as to its originality.

I can't speak to the authenticity of the pull, however, that lightened ring may be caused by the play of a loose knob rubbing. You could try loosening the knob and a see if that is the area the base contacts.

I thought yours looked different, Dis. Perfectly possible that there may have been variations, though.
