Looks like a nice Bettini attachment for Graphophones/Pathés!

€505 at present, with 6 ½ days remaining: it will probably spike tremendously in the last moments of bidding....

Not a lot of Euros at all. I expect that to go into the thousands. That is a rare item. Most of the ones of that style that turn up in Europe were copies made by Pathé, almost always in pot metal. This one is a true, signed Bettini attachment -- with original box no less.

Bettini attachments for Columbias are far rather than those for Edison.

$5,310. Right in the ballpark for such a great rarity.
