Re: Beautiful Sonora phonograph
$1400. dollars for a Supreme!!! Unbelievable. I'm sure that I would have driven down to Texas as fast as possible to snatch up such a rare beauty. It's unfortunate that it was refinished, but oh well it's Supreme. I sincerely congratulate the new owner who will no doubt place it in a phonograph auction and make several thousand in profit. If it was mine, it would stay in my collection until my estate was sold off. 

"You can't take the phonographs nor the money with you, but the contentment the phonographs bring may well make your life better, and happier lives make the world a better place."

I'm boardering on heresy here, but I've always thought these were extremely gaudy and way over-the-top. At home perhaps in Liberace's house
But yes,.... I would have snapped that up in a heartbeat
Someone got a heck of a deal. Hope it doesn't show up on Pintrest stuffed with wine bottles.

I'm experiencing dreadnaught-like, indefatigable envy.
That's a stunning Sonora! Many thanks for posting the several photos, and to others for the concise model.
What I know of Sonoras could fit inside a needle tin - already full of needles.
Cheers,
Fran

Wow, thanks for the additional photos. I love my Sonoras but I can only hope to find one like that someday.
