Of the two Brunswicks I would choose the second. I owned the queen ann leg one thats listed first. Personally in person I never liked the looks of it, the legs always looked like they didn't go with the cabinet. The second machine is a version similar to one I also owned but had a slightly different trim, that one worked cabinet wise. The queen ann leg model was in walnut but even that didn't help it much..

That Alhambra 1 certainly does not have its original radio: that's an early 30's retrofit.

Here is a C-250 for sale on craigslist that has a nice looking Duncan Automatic Stop. We have been discussing this on another thread. Not too bad of a price considering it's condition.

[JohnM]

Six is a little dear for a C-250, Sonny. That is about high realistic retail. There are just too many of these around to warrant paying too much for them. Especially with non-original grill cloth.

[phonophan79]

Don't know the model offhand, but seems to be a fair price?

Columbia Outside Horn Phonograph - $650 (Belleville, MO)
http://stlouis.craigslist.org/atq/1461754266.html

WHAT IN THE WORLD? This appears to have zero practical functionality. I mean, theres a reproducer and a horn, but are they even connected?

http://wichita.craigslist.org/atq/1462207797.html

Hrmm, am I looking at an original Victor Pooley cabinet? I'm not sure.

Pretty wild cabinet.

Victrola turntable and records - $20 (S. Colorado Springs, CO)
http://cosprings.craigslist.org/atq/1463986900.html

Not really special, I just don't recall seeing such a late Sonora phono...

[FellowCollector]

The Victrola Craigslist link listed in Duluth for $800 (above) appears to be the very early XIV with gold plated hardware. Definitely one of the harder to find Victrola models.

[Edisone]

I wonder how tall is that $95 Brunswick (if it would fit in my 99 Caravan, that is) ... hmm

[gramophoneshane]

The $95 Brunswick is a "Stratford". I saw one once & it appeared to be the same size as my Madrid, which measures 36"H x 34.5"W x 21.5"D.
The second Brunswick appears to be a Brunswick Radiola No.160, but it should have a 3 panel door over the horn which pulls forward. It's a shame it & the grille are missing.

[Kirkwood]

That second Brunswick, while it resembles the BR-160 is actually another Art-type cased console, the Model T (for Tuscan? Tuscany?). Yes, it should have a grille over the speaker, but there isn't the door as you'd see on the BR-160. Also, the BR-160 has the phono compartment over to the left, not centered as in this case.
I've owned both, and kept the "T", but gave up on the BR-160, sadly. The cabinet was just too far ruined from water damage to ever be restored properly, not to mention trying to get the mold all out of it.
