Only $300! Even in an unrestored condition surely it must be worth more than that? If I was state side then I would be buying this but shipping to the UK would be prohibitive unfortunately.
I am interested in all forms of audio media including: gramophones, phonographs, wire recorders, the tefifon, reel to reel tapes, radiograms and radios.

If it wasn’t a 12 hour one way trip for me I would’ve gotten it :(

Get a crew together & work a phonographic Underground Railroad, and give your Cortez some company!

I am trying to get something that will be even better than this Electrola to accompany to my Cortez ;) If I am lucky enough to obtain it, I will certainly post it about it here!
