Pathé Phonograph from circa 1919

[ChasKit]

I have a Pathé phonograph/gramophone in working condition. It has variable speed, a large acoustical speaker and shelving for records built into the cabinet.

Model XVII
Serial No.: 12941
Size 22" x 22" x 48" high

The crank and spring work fine. Sound quality is OK but very loud and a little tinny. I tried adjusting the volume but didn't notice an appreciable difference. Maybe I'm not using the lever correctly.

Tone arm has a screw to loosen so the reproducer can be adjusted to either vertical or lateral cut records. For whatever reason, the reproducer seems to be stuck in place to play lateral cut records. I don't know what's causing it to stick and didn't want to force it.

Any offers? It would have to be a pick up in Brooklyn NY.

Thanks for posting the pic of the Model XVII Pathé. I have one that was rescued from a fire (subsequently refinished; innards work well) and missing the grille cover over the horn. Don't frequently see these, so appreciated looking at yours.
