Well, I think we've waited long enough. I would hope that photos if this great buy will be coming soon.

Very nice !

Looks like you did well. :mrgreen:


I'm not terribly familiar with Triumphs, but based on the end-gate, "signature" decal, carriage lift-lever and shaver, I'd figure this is an early Triumph B, circa 1906 ?

I want to see the Triumph morning glory horn and, anxious to see you flea market booth, that was as promised.

Here are a couple of pictures of my booth. They are not high quality at all because I took these pictures with my iPad. At the flea market I do not work alone. I work with another phonograph collector and our booth is a mix of his phonographs and my phonographs. Yesterday someone made a $400 down payment on one of mine. :mrgreen:

And second picture showing the salesman. And yes you guessed it that teenager in the photo is none other than me. Nick the victrola boy. I look a little short in the picture because the person who took the photo held the camera up high to get the phonographs behind me in the picture.

First picture. There are people everywhere! Which is good because maybe someone will buy a phonograph.

I will get a picture of the horn but it looks like crap because someone painted it gold. :( And I never said it was a Triumph morning glory, it's just a 10 panel morning glory horn. The Triumph horn was a 12 panel horn I believe.
