Disc and Machines
Gramophones, records, Vintage cars, old bullet type sewing machines and many antique objects were collected as a hobby in the past 3 decades. Since this collection has many very rare gramophone records of the 1900 to 1940 period and a good collection of gramophones unseen by the present generation, it was thought to be appropriate to preserve them and make provision for future generations to see and study. New building was constructed using own funds and Museum was opened on 25th January 2015 in a public meeting attended by many dignitaries of the State. Feel free to visit the Museum. Serious enthusiasts can utilize the Homestay facility available here.
