Re: Edison B-80 on Ebay
Interesting machine. Looks like someone has worked-over the finish, not sure I'd call it "restored"...
The motor and drive mechanism are particularly interesting to me...
What's with the strap and carriage bolt on the back-side ?

They support connections to the horn inside the cabinet. One bolt is missing.De Soto Frank wrote:Interesting machine. Looks like someone has worked-over the finish, not sure I'd call it "restored"...

Re: Edison B-80 on Ebay
Nonetheless, a pretty nice DD Phonograph, and IMHO at $299, a reasonable price. I would have bought it at this price (if I had the space and the cash).
