Brunswick Sharon on UK eBay.

There cannot be many of these in the UK, but the seller needs to make up his mind about how he wants to sell it.
Twice listed as an auction, listings twice ended prematurely, and the third listing is a "Buy it Now". I quite like it, but I don't have the space for it.

If the latest listing is to be believed, the seller is offering free postage via Hermes. Packing the machine will be a challenge.

I have a quick question about the components.

The Sharon model profiled in this post -- viewtopic.php?f=2&t=38474 -- shows the pre-1925 style tonearm and sound box.

This one for sale is fitted with the acoustic Panatrope tonearm and sound box, which would date it 1926 or beyond. Was it retrofitted at some point by a previous owner, or did the Sharon model's production run extend beyond the introduction of electrical recording, and come factory-equipped with the newer style components?

THANK YOU
Very kind of you to point this out - of course most people would have worked this out from the description - perhaps you couldn't read it?


How's that for thanks ? Still he's now altered his listing :D
