The less common Oak version of the Opera, but where is the lid?

It’s in great shape! The elbow and horn look really good. I prefer the Mahogany myself however. A lot of the elbows have significant paint loss. I paid top dollar to have mine redone - and it wasn’t easy finding someone to do it right! Good looking machine!

Responding to my enquiry, the auctioneer has confirmed that the lid is missing.

and the automatic stop, to stop the phonograph at the end of playing a cylinder is also missing !!
