[ Ссылка ] - Antique New Style phonograph or gramophone by Berliner made in England circa 1905 for the European market, complete and in fine condition. This is an entirely original article; the only part which has been replaced (due to the logical deterioration of the material) is the leather elbow which connects the reproducer and the horn. The rest of the gramophone has survived as it was for more than a century, making it possible to play today old-time records with the wonderful sound which characterizes them.

Berliner gramophones are the first flat disc gramophones in history. Its image became famous worldwide, since it is the model that appears in the famous logo of His Master's Voice. In the New Style model, the motor is more powerful than that of its predecessors, a fantastic innovation for its time, which allows to reproduce not only the original Berliner records, which sound terrible, but also, as the motor is more powerful, standard 10 inch (25 cms) records.

The box is made of solid oak wood and stands on a plank of the same material. It bears an ancient decal, entirely original and finely preserved, with the logo of The Gramophone & Typewriter Company and information about the brand. We can also see a circular embedded plate with the same logo, a naked angel playing a record with a feather. The amazing brass horn is in great condition, being also a difficult to find piece, as they were normally black lacquered and having them in brass was an extra when buying the gramophone..

Any lover of old time record players will appreciate this antique New Style phonograph or gramophone by Berliner, a really iconic model.
