@riqzster Well, maybe I'm being stupid. It just dawned on me you need three hands if you're holding the camera . . . I know a dead guy who used to work in the Phonograph Department.

Thanks. One thing I must get off my chest, however. It amazes me how many collectors are under the mistaken impression that the lever is to be used for moving the reproducer both vertically and laterally. Use the lever (with your left hand) ONLY to raise and lower. While the reproducer is raised, move laterally with your right hand holding the reproducer from behind -- at the point just above where it goes down into the cabinet. This machine was not designed for one-armed people!

Thanks. After listening to the song, I read up on the history of the crossword puzzle. Fascinating story!
