Rare Electric Coin Operated Phonograph

Rare coin-operated electric autophone phonograph with headphones for public hearings. The mechanism of the coin mechanism and the plate are visible thanks to bevelled glasses. This device comes from the former Casino des Fleurs in Vichy, which no longer exists! An auditorium was devoted to listening to these devices. Machines of the same model were placed all around the room! Each device made it possible to listen to a well-defined disc! The small bulb on the top of the pediment indicated that the device was busy. This machine is in very good condition and complete with its original elements! The cabinetwork is in blond oak of a very beautiful honey color. The mechanism is in very good working order, video on demand. We find this device in reference in the work of Daniel Marty " Illustrated History of the Phonograph " page 161. For more information do not hesitate to contact us at 06 08 92 54 55.
