Re: Columbia Graphophone model BE
Let me know if you find one you'd be willing to part with. I bought a nice horn that I'll be picking up the end of August, so now it's the crane and base to find.

Can't get a hold of him

The best way to describe it is that it has a steel strap which runs under the cabinet, with a crane mount attached and a sliding "clamp" piece that holds it firmly to the outside bottom molding. I don't remember who made it, but it does not damage the cabinet and will support a large horn. Someone can probably identify the crane I am referring to...
I just found the base part for sale - all that is needed is an upright portion (most types will interchange).

Keep on looking - at least you know what it looks like. They show up from time to time. It might help if someone knew the original manufacturer...
