This incredible item is a true rarity being the only example we know of. From 1934 and pictured on page 268 of Disneyana by Munsey. This is a high quality phonograph with great design and detailing. 13x16.5x7.5" deep. Interior/exterior of the case has glossy textured fabric covering. On the top of the lid is name "Emerson Mickey Mouse Phonograph" as well as illustration of Mickey playing a piano while Minnie dances on top. Has a pair of metal clasps and hinged lid. Interior of lid is designed to hold records with a separate compartment that has snap closure. This features a great image of one-man-band Mickey who plays both traditional instruments as well as items such as bottles, garbage can lid, horseshoes and a turtle. The bottom half of the case has a metal bracket but the lid is missing a second bracket this attached to and used to keep the lid propped open. Right side of case has the carrying handle as well as opening for the separate crank handle but this crank is missing. Also, the tone arm is missing the head attachment that held the needle. Similar replacement pieces should be easily obtainable from a dealer of vintage phonographs. O/w complete and includes original felt covering on the turn table, attached compartment for needles with flip-up lid, speed control. The metal clasps and hinges have some tarnish/surface oxidation. Outside of case has moderate dust soiling and small scattered traces of wear to the fabric covering mostly along edges and at corner tips where there are some small missing fabric pieces. Handle also shows wear with some of the fabric covering missing. Outside still displays Fine. Interior displays VF/Exc. A must-have item for any serious collector of Disneyana. From the Michael J. Stern Collection.
