I never saw this type of B-80 before. Does anybody know the purpose of the panels? Harvey Kravitz

It has some unusual parts to it. The back bracket is cast Iron plated in brass. It may have been nickel plated. These brackets are usually painted black with gold stripes. The arm is solid brass, and probably was nickel plated. These arms are usually aluminum. In fact the parts are brass plated with the nickel plating stripped off. I'm puzzled about the tone arm and back bracket. Any help or insight will be greatly appreciated.
