Antique Golden Pyramid Phonograph Needle Tin

This tin is from the early 1900’s, and still has it's steel needles used to play shellac records on wind up phonographs. One of the more unusual and entertaining of the needle tins; this was from The British Needle Company Limited of Redditch, England and came in four tones (of which this is the loudest).

It is in amazing condition; the gold is bright and has good gloss, with minimal wear on the edges and bottom. It measures about 2 1/2" tall by 1 5/8" square.
