Description
This unusual machine resembles an early Edison concert cylinder phonograph. Upper works and bedplate appear to be fabricated out of steel plate -not the usual castings. Brass carriage and mandrel. Early Edison-style automatic reproducer with some variance in modifications. Good stylus. Motor appears complete and as with the upper mechanism, the motor castings also appear to be fabricated. Cabinet and cover appear to be hand-built. Overall good condition with original golden oak finish. Small accessory drawer. Missing winding crank. This machine appears to either be a prototype or patent model?? Nicely built by someone with very advanced skills. A welcome addition to any collection. Base measures approximately 12 3/4" X 18" and with lid, approx. 18"H
