Reproduction Cygnet?

Post by hearsedriver »

Does anyone here think this is a reproduction? I can see that the decal is but the rest of it looks like the real deal to me. If it is a repop, let me know how I can tell for future reference. Thanks

If it's a repro, it's a dandy.

I go to this guy's shop occasionally. I'm surprised he would get repro vs. orig incorrect. He deals in a LOT of phonographs. He has awesome stuff, but is shockingly overpriced (in his shop anyway).

Can any Forum member that owns both an original and reproduction #10 Cygnet take photos of them side and explain the differences? Thanks, Jerry

I am sure he is just selling them separately to make more money. There are a few other parted out complete things in his list as well.
