The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

OK Pathé fans...this country auction is about a dozen miles from my home. It is a country auction and no one out here knows what this is. It has zero bids and price is currently ZERO. If you can locate Tyler TX, Frankston is about 20 miles south from there. This should go super cheap.....super cheap. Of course last local auction I put on the phonograph forums was for the 12 ft tall Victrola Sign in Tyler TX....it was going for 135.00 then. I had no place for such a rare but HUGE sign and of course the big collectors weighed in. I am thrilled that one of our own got it rather than an interior decorator or another restaurant. It will be beautiful when finished as the pictures show. This Paper cone diaphragm Pathé phonograph has 5+ days left on the auction...so plenty of time to register if interested. Here is the auction link
