Description from the seller
VINTAGE
Relive the authentic Jazz Age atmosphere with a unique collectible piece.
I am selling a splendid vintage portable gramophone, a true masterpiece of mechanical engineering and style. It isn’t the usual black model: this "phonovale"? Actually, this "phonograph suitcase" stands out for its exclusive crocodile-textured ochre laminate, making it an object of furniture with incredible visual impact.
Why choose it:
• Iconic Design: The studded/crocodile finish is an absolute rarity, typical of the most luxurious editions produced between 1920 and 1930.
• Original Mechanics: Equipped with a side crank and an era-appropriate acoustic tonearm in excellent cosmetic condition.
• Piece of History: Perfect for anyone seeking an authentic object that tells a story, far from modern plastic imitations.
• Versatility: Ideal as an Interior Design element, for classy shop windows, or to enrich a private collection.
Technical Details:
• Model: Portable suitcase gramophone (Pathé/Columbia style).
• Materials: Veneered wood, chromed metal, crank with wooden knob.
• Condition: Excellent cosmetic conservation (as shown in the photos).
Weight
Don’t miss the chance to own an object that not only reproduces music but stops time.
Do not miss this masterpiece of the vinyl era!
Don’t miss out on this rarity. Objects like these are no longer made!
Typical dimensions of a portable phonograph suitcase from the 1920s, like the one shown in the image (characterized by the compact briefcase design), are as follows:
Width: 28–32 cm
Depth: 38–42 cm
Height (closed): 15–18 cm
These measurements correspond to the standard of the era’s most common models (such as the Pathé or Columbia 102 series), designed to comfortably house 10-inch records inside the lid and ensure maximum portability.
