Amberola 1-B Followed Me Home

Post by Jerry B. »

Does it count as a Union trip purchase if I bought this Amberola before I was able to wash the bugs collected on my 5300 mile Union trip? I just couldn't resist such a nice machine. I cleaned the cabinet today and it's outstanding. Jerry B.

What a great looking machine. There is something about an oak cabinet that I find very attractive! Is this a keeper?

I love the machine! What a great find. I know room is becoming an issue for you so feel free to "store" it at my place!
