For Sale: Edison Gem Model B w/ lid

Post by ColoradoPhonograf »

I have the following Edison Gem for sale. The black body is very nice and not chipped up. The nickel on the machine is very nice as well. The striping is fair and I would describe it as about 70% there. The machine runs fine but needs a new belt installed. The mandrel turns smooth and nice without any wobble. The base is in great shape and does have the remnants of the four rubber feet in place.
The reproducer is the model C and the plating is getting thin and the brass is showing through on both the body and the weight. The stylus looks fine under a loop but it needs some linkage adjustment. It just doesn't drop down enough when you lower the carriage. The linkage appears to need to be shortened a tad bid.
The lid is a nice solid lid with the original script decal. There are two very tiny veneer chips on the edges (about 1/16" x 3/16") The finish on the lid is getting thin and dry. It displays fine and most people usually don't even have the lid near the machine when they have them displayed.

Included is (5) 2-minute wax cylinders in nice shape.
The price is $375.
