Mooopeator is Mooooving on... Time to let others enjoy...

[Moooperator]

Folks, After collecting for 28 years my better half and I are downsizing in kids AND phonographs. We are about to go from 4 kids to 1 in the house and this 3 story house is too much. Which means MY babies have got to go. Unlike mama, I can keep a few of my favorites but it's still hard to let them go! I've posted the first batch of Table Top models on Yankee Trader. I'll be posting around 50 floor models, record cabinets, and amberolas soon. Most of the small non-machine items will go through eBay and I'll be taking spare horns, records, cylinders and framed items to the Union show in June. I can also deliver anything you want to buy at union show for free! Although I'm downsizing I'm going to keep being a part of this wonderful hobby full of great and unusual people. I just won't need as much sewing machine oil and dust rags!!

Hi Moo!
Good to hear from you. I know what you mean about "mooooving on". As time goes on, I have to ask myself: how many machines do I actually use? Thanks for letting us know and don't be a stranger.
Regards,
Martin

I've really enjoyed them but as long as I got my 10-50, a table top or two I think I'll survive... I might need to keep a cylinder box around to sniff to get my "old smell" fix! Do they make a type of methadone to wing you off phonographs??? lol

For those who may not be aware, Moooperator, not Mooopeator, has made some nice Youtube videos of some of his fine phonographs, which I like to view from time to time. thanks, Moo! Marc.
