These are pretty rare! The seller says that it includes a few (maybe 2) paramount records as well.

Re: Paramount phonograph with records - South Bend Indiana
We have a Paramount. This machine was made by United Phonograph Corp., Wisconsin, about 1920. They also made the Puritans, Wisconsin, Vista and the United brands. The mechanics are the same in the different brands (at least the models we have).
Here are some of the pictures from the Paramount from the CL ad(for posterity):

Hi phonolamplighter,
Thanks,
Bob in Wisconsin
Are you sure they made a "Wisconsin" brand machine. Can you point me to any documentation/literature? You have piqued my interest.They also made the Puritans, Wisconsin, Vista and the United brands.
Thanks,
Bob in Wisconsin
