This is an astonishing collection.
A Kalamzoo Duplex, tinfoil machine, the Victor for dance halls...

All the good stuff.

Pretty cool clip there Scott... I love old phonographs! That guy had some very, VERY rare stuff! Very interesting items he has... I wonder if he has any Electric players from the 30's... maybe not... all I know is I wanted to hear that double bell speaker he had, that looked really cool!

Wow! That's an amazing collection. Mine is more modest at just two:1948 Jukebox and 1953 Hi-Fi phonograph. I love the one that he has that's the first with an amplifier. Thanks for the link!:eusa_clap

It used to be Detroit....

My jaw is currently below ground level. I see the man owns one of the dreaded "Auxetophones". I understand that it was used to broadcast opera from the top of the Eiffel tower (and oddly enough, the air compressor worked with an electric motor, while the turntable operated on clockwork).
