Striking and Ultra Rare antique His Marter's Voice gramophone made for the Spanish Market (HMV=His Master's Voice in Spanish). Made between 1915 and 1920, is a rare piece worthy of the best collector. As well as being in excellent condition, this gramophone provides a wonderful sound, neat and clear. The article is as beautiful as the first day, and is a luxury model with mahogany wood horn. These horns are very rare and this one is a totally original His Master's Voice horn.

The box is made of two different kinds of woods, and the combination of both makes up an attractive Art Noveau style design. The moldings and corners are made of reddish wood, probably mahogany, while the panels are made of burr wood. The impressive horn is made of longitudinal wooden planks which combine their veneers to form a fine design. There is a circular label with the HMV brands logo in Spanish. The same logo appears at the front of the box. Both labels are 100% original. The horns edge has an antique and very well done restoration work.

The arm and elbow which hold the reproducer and the horn are made of silvery metal, polished and shiny. The reproducer is the original one and bears the following inscription: HIS MASTERS VOICE Nº 2 THE GRAMOHONE COMPANY LTD. HAYES MIDDLESEX ENGLAND. The motor in excellent working conditions. It's very silent and last for more than a record without problems. The sound is excellent.

This is an amazing luxury gramophone and a truly collectors piece.
