Commonwealth Electronics 12A & 16A Turntables

As far as I know the Commonwealth Electronics 12A and 16A turntables were the first 12 and 16 inch turntables made by the company. The "A" model was manufactured from the early to the mid 1950's.

This 12A is from my collection.

This picture of 16A turntables comes from an article "The A.B.C. Sydney Programme Centre", Proceedings of the IRE (Aust), August 1959, pp 457-462.
