    This is a “Douglas Art Case Cabinet” with a nickle outside morning glory horn; even though it isn't known exactly who made/sold it. They were sold by upscale New York City dealers as “custom models”, nearly all that are known use the Victor D phonograph mechanical parts. So this was some kind of hybrid aftermarket conversion for wealthy buyers. They were only made for 2 or 3 years, and this one likely was made in 1905.

    A HUGE thank you to Paul Edie for helping garner more precise information on this phonograph set!

      Thanks for the Loves & Comments!

      I have a fascination and love of the early phonographs (both cylinder player and disc) and music boxes.
