Columbia AA Questions

Post by Dave D »

Does the Columbia AA use the same mainsprings as a Columbia model B (Eagle)?
Thanks!

They certainly look the same - from the outside anyway. Considering the context of Columbia's activities in 1901, I'd be astonished if they were NOT the same mainsprings/barrels.

Well, George, that was my thought too. I have one coming in for repair and want to order the mainsprings before it arrives. The owner has had it for 55 years and it was his grandmothers. The cabinet is in mint conditon since it has been in a closet all these years. I am looking forward to doing the work on this for him.
