Hi,

I've just been given an empty case for an HMV 119 (electric) gramophone. It's not worth revarnishing, and anyway I rather like the "original but been round the block a bit" look, but I would like to put a bit of wood treatment on it to tidy, preserve and shine it up a bit. Any suggestions?

Photo attached.

I'm going to store my pile of 78s in it which I have for my much loved HMV 109 table top!

Thanks,

Andy
