Re: Mystery Machine, Wow
Has a lot of similarity of a Columbia Period Grafonola model Adam (P-3), 1917-1921).

Re: Mystery Machine, Wow
It looks a lot like it, but the tone-arm doesn't look like anything from Columbia and the left side has a lid rather than a door. I am thinking that it is probably an off-brand.Victrola-Monkey wrote:Has a lot of similarity of a Columbia Period Grafonola model Adam (P-3), 1917-1921).

I think your best best would be to contact the seller -- https://boston.craigslist.org/bmw/gms/d ... 47304.html -- and see if he still has it, and ask him to check to see if there's a Mfg. or brand name under the lid or near the turntable.
The tonearm is unique. I've seen similar ones, but nothing identical.

I don’t want to bother them. I don’t have the room anyway. I just thought that it was interesting and different. I didn’t want to post it in the ebay/Craigslist section without knowing what it is.

Re: Mystery Machine, Wow
The tonearm/reproducer looks like it was made by the parts supplier Krasco. (Paramount and a few other off-brands used them.)
So I think it's a real off brand, but that's one fancy cabinet for one.

Re: Mystery Machine, Wow
Internal crank. If anyone is in to unusual machines, this might be something of interest. I got curious and asked for some information. They did not find a name on the machine. It is $275.00 and it is still available at this time, (the tag sale is on Saturday, May 4th). If someone on here gets it, please share your findings.
Thanks
