I was told by my mother that my Grandmother/great grandmoted would use this thing (iron). They would have a big metal plate over a flame to warm a few (up to 8) of them and 2 or 3 people would work (iron) at once and switch to a hot one when the one they were using got cold. They used some sort of cloth to grab them....

hope you guys like it

thanks for looking...

The oak surface and and the background shadows are a nice touch. Good job.

Thank you, for your kind words, and thanks for looking...
At first I tried some shots avoiding all light but then I decided to leave them in. I wanted to put a b/w image, but I think the color suited my taste better this time
I did not have time to coment but I will, I like the phonograph...
