Mystery Columbia?

Post by HMVDevotee »

I recently found this on Facebook Marketplace and took a screen-shot to share. It appears to be branded Columbia and looks like some version of the HMV 31 -32 range. Does anyone know about this machine, or is it some "frankenphone"?

It also looks like a piece of enthusiastic work to make a big machine from parts... Or a Frankenstein's! The crank is there portable style!
The parts could have been taken from a Columbia 161/163...
