As I recall from literature and Bob Baumbach's wonderful books, it was rough shaped by machine and then hand carved. I should probably go back and check for accuracy of what I've said, but that's is as I recall.

Phono Listers: I was checking out the "gingerbread" on a Victor XVI cabinet, and was wondering how they were able to produce it with so much "consistency". Did the ornamentation come from a carving tool or was it molded and applied later? Just curious.
