HMV Gramophone Record Player Style 7 circa 1915
My unit has an antique-finish brass horn and is in good working order. The sound is surprisingly loud and quite a hit at dance parties. Plays 78 rpm records. Comes with a tin of steel needles of similar vintage. I’ve owned it since 1995.
Manufactured by the Gramophone Company, Hayes, Middlesex, England, the originators of His Master’s Voice now known as HMV:
