It's a Silvertone sold by Sears... the top of the line for 1918, the "Louis Fifteenth Design" B-XVI, available in mahogany or walnut. The machine pictured for sale has the grill upside down...

Thanks Curt. Definitely a nice machine but a bit pricey. Cheers

What a deal - ONLY $900 :roll: and the guy paid $1,500... besides he's a motivated seller.

It is a nice looking machine, I had two and have one now that is I believe complete, it could use restoration for $200. If you are going to the Wayne Show---stop in and take a look.
