With a Diamond B reproducer and the 2/4 gearing it's well worth the $120 opening price, even with the $60 shipping charge to the USA. They can keep that horn though. And maybe the case too.

I thought the same thing- Lots of good parts- No stylus on the Diamond "B" though.

The horn connection looks like something out of Dr. Seuss.
How about posting a photo of it?

Very RARE. I am sure you won't find another one like it.
