Description
This machine in its elaborate oak cabinet has its original finish and decal. It is in fair condition with some finish loss and deterioration on the top cover, lower cabinet and decal. This uncommon machine is rarely seen and is unique in the fact that it has the ability to play both concert and standard size cylinders. Both original mandrills are present and move freely. The adjustable mandril drive moves freely as well, Has a number 5 reproducer with a good stylus however the cueing tang is missing. The cueing mechanism and transport move freely however the transport tube is a high quality reproduction. The upper mechanism and bed plate are in average condition with some minor pitting here and there. See photos Has its original winding crank. Motor winds and run. Also included is an original 14" L aluminum horn with a 7-1/4" L bell. However this horn is in poor condition with dents, wrinkles and added rivets. This uncommon machine is not often seen and would be a welcome addition to any collection. The cabinet and cover measure 12-1/4" W X 10-1/4" D X 14" T.
