Yesterday I had the opportunity to add a new pony to the stable. When I looked at it, I suddenly realized that out of the 3 bigger companies from the 1920's. You see many Victor tabletops, and Edison had its share. You just don't see many Brunswick tabletop machines. This is a model 105, with dual Ultona reproducer. The condition is a very nice original machine in oak. I thought I could give it a new home. If you have one, post up some pics. Thanks

Hi, it's a beauty! Does this have the same tremendous Brunswick motor? That horn is also a beauty. It must sound very good...! Any possibilities of seeing a YT video of it playing?

It is a beautiful one. I remember one of my friends owned one and demonstrated how sweet it can reproduce vocal music.ColoradoPhonograf wrote: Sat Feb 18, 2023 12:13 am Yesterday I had the opportunity to add a new pony to the stable.

As to other makers' tabletop models, I'd have said Victor and Columbia much more than Edison. I've seen plenty of Columbias, at least in sale listings and such, but fairly few Edison disc table models, and having briefly owned a "Chalet" model I'm not surprised. Edison's mechanism did not lend itself to a compact package, and that thing was both huge (for a table model) and heavy.
