Mikky Phone Portable 78 Record Player 1930’s Japan Complete Very Good+
I think that because of our very low humidity there was no rust and minimal pitting. The crank handle is all nickel plate – no plastic handle. The strap is leather and not vinyl/plastic. The three arms that hold the record have a textured surface to help hold the record in place and not rubber dots. All of the pieces appear to be original and included. The screw down record holder button is still there. The record player plays. (I opened the case to clean and lubricate). Now it spins more freely. The nickel plating is almost perfect. The “tone arm” had some minor pitting which was easily removed this a little steel wool and polish. The outside of the “Reproducer” is very handsome and art-deco styled. The “Stylus Bar” is broken off, but it was inside the reproducer head. I open the head to remove the stylus bar and found that the foil sound wafer is damaged. While I was able to make “Music”, I’m sure that it would be much better if it is repaired. I added a new needle. The “horn” has several chips in the brown applied finish. Mainly by the holes that align with the stem that holds the horn in place while stored. (I think that it is brass under the finish). The case is also in very nice condition. The makers mark on the front is terrific. The hinges work and are not twisted or bent. The push button lock works. Beyond the front plate, I couldn’t find any markings.
