Kastenpuck

Link to ROMFI
 

An extremely rare machine of unusual design. Kastenpuck means that it is a Puck, but in a case. It has a flat base as opposed to the usual Kastenpuck style of the machine sitting on a box. It has a black enamelled bedplate with gold decoration. Though the motor is typical Puck style, the columns holding mandrel brake & governor are turned metal.

The horn support extends out when the machine is in use, but slides back under the base plate when the machine is closed. A patent number is embossed on the brake lever.


It is designed to play wax 2 minute records. It dates from around 1900
