Post by zonophpones7 »

I am offering This Columbia Model A phonograph for sale. The cabinet has original finish and the banner decal is original, the dealer decal is replacement. The upper casting has been restored with new decals and paint. The carriage is nickel plated brass, so no pot metal issues with this model. I will gladly take additional photos and will answers all questions promptly. Thanks for looking!

The Serial Number is 538xx and the embossed metal ID tag says The Perfected Graphophone... so according to the SN range for a Washington A, in Howard Hazelcorn's book, it is a Washington A. I restored the casting using Washington A Decals rather than the later style.
