Grill is intact, but cloth is frayed.  Original Brunswick "Double Ultona" reproducer, with 2 diaphragms and 3 needles designed to play all 78's of the era due to manufacturers' differing record-cutting techniques; a revolutionary development and desirable feature for the time.

Machine does crank up and work! Not play-tested. 

Includes a selection of records from the era.
