I wonder if the photographs of E J Bellocq might show a phonograph in a whorehouse interior? Not exactly what you are asking for, but there is a compilation of the photographs...

From [email protected] Mon Feb 23 17:06:34 2009 From: [email protected] (Raymond Wilenzick) Date: Mon Feb 23 17:06:37 2009 Subject: [Phono-L] Phonographs in New Orleans References: <1bf98a7e75a544c9b0924e8fbaf62...@ronlherault> <[email protected]> Message-ID: <001001c9961c$23f613f0$6401a...@wilenzick> I believe much information on the early jazz pioneers' musical interests, as well as phonograph use in New Orleans during the early years of the twentieth century could be found in the Jazz Archives at the Howard Tilton Memorial Library of Tulane University in New Orleans. As a former resident of New Orleans, I have been there on several occasions and it is a wonderful collection.
