Crikey, that's rare and in excellent condition. What will it fetch?

Yes, but that was just me bidding! ;)

I already have a teak 114 with ebonised bandings. Do I REALLY need this one?

Blow me down, that's another gramophone I used to own, or one identical (I didn't record the serial number when I sold it). There can't be many ex-India gramophones in that condition! I can't remember how much I sold it for, but it certainly wasn't £365.

Thanks, Shane. Hopefully we won't have to worry too much this time as the machine should hopefully be with me in a couple of days and it won't be going anywhere after that! ;)

There is always room for another colonial machine!

That's why I'm moving to new premises with a verandah! ;)

I suppose at this point it might be helpful if you would kindly care to share with us other rare and interesting machines you have sold over the past 40 years, so we might target them in our sights over the coming weeks! :lol:
