today's pick

Post by Le0 »

I've been out of the phonograph hobby for a little while but today I got 2 projects.
#1 is an Edison Home that's unfortunately missing it's lid
#2 is a nice Pathéphone No.4 fitted with Columbia tone arm and horn.

if you have parts for either machine I'd be interested.

Hello,
Great finds! That Edison Suitcase Home should clean up nicely. You should be able to find a lid on EBay as they do turn up occasionally.

thanks. there's a lid currently on Ebay; the seller has all the hardware listed too but it sums up to 1 ½ times what I paid for the rest of the machine...
it really breaks my hart to know the previous owner had the lid but destroyed it by accident during some renovation work (a 2x4 landed on it) and decided to throw it away with the hardware. :shock: :o :(
