The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Nice row of very clean and polished Victor uprights. I wonder if a single one changed hands??

This was a great show with a number of uprights being sold along with the Duplex and other machines. The record collectors had a field day with some of them making multiple trips to their cars and the convenient ATM machine located on site. As with the past couple of years we are beginning to see many more young folks and first time show goers. Quality, targeted advertising equaled a good and steady crowd almost to the end of the show on Sunday.

We sold all sorts of items from machines to records (expensive to cheap) to all sorts of go-with items. Can't wait for next year!

That's what happens when you're the fastest person in the room

Outside of the Duplex, were there any rare machines or records for sale? Any European machines? Thanks.

I had my Edison B-60 which is rated 4 **** on rarity. 5 ***** are the rarest machines. It did sell. There was Tom Hawthorn's Amberola III for sale, which did not sell. I saw a rare, in the U.S., Columbia Viva-Tonal Grafonola small console in oak for sale. Don't know if it sold. It is a British machine. They are curious machines because they are an orthophonic type machine that are still called Grafonolas, and still have the old louvers over the grille.

That's swimmers leg. It's tough to get around on land but in the pool it's a different story.
