Whatsit Test for all you Smart Pants!

If you dare to guess, take a look at the pictures attached and see if you can tell me what these things are???? I have no clue. However, I do have a tip:
They were found in a 1904 Sewing Machine drawer. Doubt if it has anything to do with sewing machines though.

I think the items were just stored in the drawer. I am most curious about the part that looks like a plumbing pipe, but it is pretty small. My guess is phonograph parts. What thinketh you?

 

[woolly]

I did have when a child a windup gramophone which had needles like that

Haha....

Those are the needles and cups holders for an old Gramophone or Victrola. I still have one at home.

Okay, good! Didn't look like sewing machine parts to me and I have fixed and sold many old sewing machines. That was driving me crazy! I had an old DENNIS THE MENACE record player when I was growing up that had needles just like that, which is why I guessed the way I did.

Glad some other people are also young enough to know what some of these things are! :Big Laugh

Thank you!
