[Phono-L] Was this plated after sale?

[Steven Medved]

There are three things that make me think it was factory plated, the mahogany case and the Thomas A Edison plate under the carriage rod rail, and the horn.  

Please note: This is my opinion, hopefully more knowledgeable people will respond.

> There's an item on ebay, a mahogany Triumph with nickel bedplate. Was the ID plate also plated over, or was it applied after plating? I am trying to decide f this was plated after sale or palted at the factoy.
