Here's something that would liven up any drawing room: a fan-made recreation of the phonograph that introduced Quentin's Theme to the world back in 1968. It wasn't an easy project to complete, according to it's creator, who explains:
"The major problem in replicating the phonograph is that it is impossible to replicate it identically. This is because horns like this were hand-painted. Thus, no two were exactly alike. They did, however, follow general patterns, although the individual artists would apply some artistic liberties to each horn, adding a leaf here, or moving a rosebud there, to give each horn a little bit of individuality. The key to duplicating the phonograph is to find a horn using the same general pattern because this is as close as you will come to duplicating the original."A detailed list of the items needed to finish the phonograph, as well as photos of the process, are posted HERE for you to see.
