Thanks Bill and Steve and everyone for the comments and photos of the
boxes.
Looks like two variations of this box, with the Amberola variant
having three holes and the Disc version having two.
The disc version seems to have a gap between the glued-in wedge shaped
insert and the side wall of the box. It would be interesting to know
if this allowed for the containment of some kind of literature or
owner's manual, or if it was simply an economy of materials to make
the solid wood insert a certain dimension that made it not quite go
all the way to the wall of the box.
It's great to see the tools in detail and with measurements.
If anyone has any further information, it would be good to be aware
of, but this is a nice start.
Thanks again,

Folks,
Here is my Amberola 1A box. It has 3 holes. I also have that same
oil can you pictured which came with the Amberola. I never knew it
fit in the box!
Thanks!

Hi Guys,
This is the box in my Opera that I believe is probably what has
been discussed on Phono-L. As I said earlier, I have have several
Operas over the years but have only had one with this box and
equipment in it. If it the same as yours, perhaps it will help
clear up the mystery.
Happy Collecting,
