I would love to see some pictures of your Oak 130.

I had originally posted this machine under "Treasures From the Wayne Show", so some had already seen it. I felt that it was a machine worth archiving, so I featured it. It is the only machine that my wife stares at.

From original post: "Here is my new to me 130, (my sidetracked treasure at Wayne). Found it in the home of the original owner. A family piece that the great grandchildren no longer wanted. If I hadn't gone to Wayne, I would not have found it for sale locally, (123 miles from the show near Philadelphia). Facebook Marketplace Local Buy and Sell can be a good place to look for treasure. It should look great after a good cleaning, (it even looks nice dirty). The XVII or 130 in this case are probably my favorites stylistically and the Oak makes it even better."

Thank you very much for making this stunning machine a featured phonograph. I cannot imagine to find any machine in better or more complete condition. What a treasure!

And a great example of how these pieces can fit in and greatly enhance a home's decor (helpful for those of us with reluctant non-collector wives).
