Lot 1272
A Victorian walnut cased Britannia table top upright polyphon, with 19 9" discs. 54 cm x 42.5 cm x 25 cm. CONDITION REPORT: There are two combs to the interior, the right hand one of which is intact, however the left hand comb has five teeth missing. The cast plate is earmarked for the Britannia Ste Croix Switzerland, Star Silver Depot, London. There is a Phillips head screw to the bracket holding the retaining bar. The mechanism does work and is in playing order. There are 19 discs some of which are slightly warped but all appear to be intact. The cabinet is in rather tired condition. The right hand door has a full length split with losses to the veneer. The left hand door is missing a piece of moulding which leaves an 11 cm gap between the two doors. The left hand door has small chips to the edge and small pieces of veneer missing. The lithographs to each door are intact but rather tired. The top of the cabinet looks like it has been painted at some time in its life and is a light chocolate brown colour. There are scuff marks throughout the ebonised base with small losses throughout. All in all a rather tired example, but one which works.
Lot 1873
A George III oak chest of drawers, with two short and three long graduated drawers with brass drop handles and lock escutcheons and raised on bracket feet. Width 95 cm. CONDITION REPORT: Height 87 cm, depth 51 cm, width 95 cm. The chest is structurally sound. The colour is uniform.

The left hand side of the piece has a loss in the timber to the bottom rear corner. The right hand side has a similar loss to the bottom rear corner. Drawers 2, 3 and 4 all have stress fractures along the bottom left hand edge. There is no movement however. All drawer fronts have scuffs, marks and minor scratches. The handles are not original but the back plates do cover the previous set of handle holes on all drawers but the bottom drawer. The right hand bottom drawer handle is missing its backplate. Two of the locks are missing. We have no keys. The lock escutcheons are probably later. All bracket feet are present and in good order.
