Description
An odd but attractive European phonograph. Appears to be a knock off of the Berliner trademark phonograph and like other European machines, it has added on ornate designs to give it a bigger eye appeal vs the more plain looking American models. There are no markings of any kind on the phonograph, not even a serial number. Oak base which has separated on 2 corners appears to be original finish, base measuring 9.25” x 9.25”. Spring barrel mounted in the rear like the Berliner design and winds from the top. The plating overall is in above average condition as are the fancy accoutrements on all four sides of the case and on the travel arm. The turntable is made from wood with a brass piece to fit over the turntable shaft. Motor winds and runs, has side break reproducer resembles early closed faced concert and has no markings anywhere. Support arm is original and has 90% of its nickel plating. Leather elbow is reproduction. Comes with reproduction horn that measures 15” x 10.25"
