Is this intended to be a working machine? No dimensions are given, and I don't see a tonearm or a soundbox.

Pretty neat... for the price point it is currently at, you can't go wrong - even if you have to track down a part or two...

Someone needs to swipe this. I will not be bidding so that is one South Carolinian who won't interfere.

This looks like a "Baby Cabinet" made by the The General Phonograph Mfg co. of Elyra, Ohio

This one has been nicely refinished and you should be able to find a replacement horn and reproducer out there along with the rest of the decals from phonodecal.com

Here is a photo of mine to give you a starting point.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this uses the exact same horn and reproducer as the little green Genola toy phonograph, (with the Humpty Dumpty decal on the horn), except in this case, the horn is painted black.
