Year of production: approx. 1913
Serial Number: 19877
Mechanism: Hupfeld Phonola 73
Height: 1,0m
This is one of the latest Hupfeld 73 presetters from Leipzig. Even after the introduction of the standard scale (65/88), Hupfeld continued to sell its own Phonola 73 system successfully for a long time. The preset is in good condition with normal signs of age and use. Presumably decades ago, woodworm was on the move in some places. After a complete restoration it would be fully usable again.
