        Wow that is neat looking. You are selling your house short, i'm sure you can squeeze this in there someplace :)

        The seller says, "I have not cranked it up" that is code word for "I have cranked it and it did not work".

        This may be a British made machine, as there was a fashion over here for barley twist legs on cabinets in the late 1920's.
        The Beltona pictured bottom right below is a typical example.

        Still listed for $100. Listing states the machine has an English Maxitone tone & reproducer arm.

        Yes the machine could be a Maxitone, what Americans call an "off brand" and we in the UK call an "assembled" gramophone i.e. assembled from bought in components.
