Hello everybody

You have an early Columbia AT. You can find the lid on ebay, or a forum member can help.

Hi Pat,
Nice project!
That should be the kind of lid you are looking for.

Hi Pat,

The decal on your AT's cabinet is actually a rather scarce variation which appeared only briefly in 1901. The September 2016 issue of The Antique Phonograph contains an article which illustrates and describes all known cylinder Graphophone banner decals. This one is the "Type 6."
