like we havent got there already :mrgreen: :mrgreen: funky new picture unc ,either a blow up of it or some info :mrgreen:

It includes an air cross-fader :cool:
The original comment suggests that this was made 103 years ago... (1910)
This is now the original picture found through Facebook... It seems to be taken in some kind of museum.
