Description from the seller
Geloso model G.284-V phonograph suitcase, an authentic jewel of Italian industrial design and late-1950s modernism. Produced in Milan by the renowned Geloso company, this model fully embodies the era of the economic boom and the birth of the first high-quality portable audio equipment.
The device is housed in its splendid original two-tone suitcase-style case (cream and strawberry red), featuring a carrying handle and metal closures.
Inside it hosts an internal valve amplifier with an integrated speaker protected by a gold grille on the top panel.
The mechanical selector allows playback at the four standard speeds of the era: 16, 33, 45, and 78 rpm.
On the front panel are the original Geloso factory marks in excellent condition and the knobs for tone and volume control.
