Art Deco Apollo on UK eBay

Apollo was the gramophone brand name of Messrs Craies and Stavridi of London. Walnut was rarely used on British machines, and this striking Art Deco example is a cut above Apollo's usual offerings. It probably incorporates their "Deep Tone Resonator", a saxophone shaped horn which anticipated HMV's version by several years.

How on Earth did you locate that in this section ?

Crafts>Woodworking>Other Woodworking Supplies

I doubt it will sell for that money if it was listed in gramophones probably wouldn't sell either BUT if listed in

Antiques>Periods/Styles>Art Deco

It would stand a good chance !

A very handsome gramophone and the price seems to be very reasonable. I agree with Brandon that it would be a wonderful machine to own.
