Hi Tom,
Thank you for your reply. The machine that John has looks like an Orthophonic Credenza with the curved tone arm. What he is looking for is an Orthophonic style reproducer or a picture of one so he knows what to look for. I'd like to see your machine.
All the best,
Harvey Kravitz

What kind of information are you looking for? I own a Kimball machine
myself. I can get you some photos of my machine if you'd like.
Here are a couple of links regarding this machine:
http://www.gracyk.com/makers.shtml
This is Tim Gracyk's Phonographs, Singers and old records. He references
the Kimball machine in this book: Kimball -- W. W. Kimball Company, Kimball
Building, Chicago, Illinois. May 1920. (Trademark filed 2/5/1918; used since
1/15/1918
http://www.arcade-museum.com/mtr/MTR-1923-76-8/MTR-1923-76-8-16.pdf This
is an old newspaper in PDF form with a Kimball Phonograph ad in it.

Hi Gang,
I have a very good friend and fellow collector(John Hoffman) who is looking
for an Orthophonic style reproducer for a Kimball Machine. It is a copy of a
Victrola Credenza. Any information and help will be greatly appreciated.
