That's pretty amazing. I hope someone here gets it. I contacted a collector in Canada I know, not sure if he is nearby or not, but worth a shot.

I really like that machine I am glad you were able to purchase it. I would like to make a glass phonograph case but that is down the line.... Lots of future projects

Congratulations Peter! That is an amazing price for an uncommon machine - and much better than making your own from scratch! ;)

Me too seconds the congratulations! The forum is a small box where all the world is contained. I get the sensation that the world is full of gramophonic bargains, all at the reach of one hand! What a nice thing!
About glass gramophones, I once had the project of building one with a metacrylate case... But I believed the motor grease would end spilling all the internals and the case... metacrylate was also one material I thought of with the idea of making an exponential square horn. In thin sheets it can easily be curved.
