This very well-preserved gramophone/phonograph is in beautiful original condition, with only minor aging of the original lacquer finish. The original gold signature is intact under the lid, and a plate is engraved with the model number, manufacturer, and patent date. Maintains beautiful original patina by way of fine crackling or crazing of the surface lacquer that only comes with age, and just enough wear for antique character.
