A charming early 20th-century Fullotone cabinet gramophone, complete with winding mechanism, internal horn and useful record storage cupboard below.
Finished in a rich mahogany-toned timber, this elegant floor-standing gramophone retains its original character and remains in working order. The cabinet features a lift-up lid revealing the turntable and soundbox, while the lower section provides storage for records and accessories.
Particularly interesting is the collection of original paperwork retained inside the cabinet, including operating instructions, a Cabinet Gramophone Company compliment slip and a postal label dated 1925 addressed to Innerleithen, adding a wonderful piece of history and provenance.
An increasingly decorative and collectible item, ideal for period interiors, collectors of early sound reproduction equipment or anyone looking for a unique statement piece.
