Item Details
Description
**Horn is oversized, cannot ship - Buyer pickup or transport ONLY.** This massive machine in its elaborate oak cabinet is in above average, original condition. The finish is still bright and shiny exceptional. Cabinet has original decals all in good condition with some minor scrapes. Cabinet has all original hardware. Both the cabinet and cover have all of their corner columns in tact. Cabinet and cover are nice and tight. The decorative carrying handles on either side of the cabinet have their original oxidized copper finish in good condition. Front of the lower cabinet opens and folds down exposing the massive three spring motor. This giant is equipped with a 4" D #10 Higham reproducer with a good stylus. The amber wheel and vulcanite shoe are in good condition - it plays loud and clear and sounds good. The upper works has original black paint, pinstripes and the decals are in good condition with some minor wear. The upper bed plate has its original nickel plating in good condition with some minor wear. Original cast iron winding crank. A massive three spring motor winds and runs. Also included is a huge 55" L brass horn with a 23-3/4" D brass bell. The horn has been professionally polished and lacquered and is in very good condition. The small end of the horn has a 1-1/8" D nipple and rubber connector which is correct for this machine. Also included is an original folding and adjustable floor standing style horn support. Has its original black paint in fair condition with some minor rust here and there. Also included is a small reproduction 8" L steel cone horn which is 4" D which has been modified to fit the massive reproducer. This is used for testing and listening when the large horn and support are not practical. Cabinet and cover measure 19" L X 13-1/2" D X 17" T. A real beauty from the Wayne Wolf Collection.
