Weekend Finds!

Post by Jerry B. »

I went to the second day of an estate sale because it featured a table model Edison Diamond Disc on Craigslist. I found much more including a Pathé Actuelle, Modernola, cylinder record cabinet and a good supply of parts.

Wow, great finds! I need to move to your part of the country. All I seem to find at estate sales around here are used kitchen wares and china trinkets :lol:

Fantastic finds! The design of that Modernola is very neat and it looks like it will clean up nicely.

Nice stuff Jerry. How did these things still remain on the second day of an estate sale?

I did ask if they sold phono items the first day, expecting they sold terrific items, but they said they replied in the negative.
