Hi

Got a new machine today, I have the model 461 and have always wanted the 460, not the easiest machine to find. Well it arrived at my door at 1 am today. the gold has been re-plated but the rest is original.

Regards Marcel

Congratulations Marcel. It looks VERY nice & they're not an easy model to find out here.
Here's an ad that appeared in a Brisbane newspaper on Dec 15, 1925. Not exactly a cheap machine considering you could buy a Bungalow upright for £1 more than the oak 460.

Hi Shane

Thanks for the pictures of the ads, do you have original copies of these? I alway wanted to scour the old news papers for gramophone ads.

Regards Marcel

Just wow. You have some serious hardware.

Such an elegant machine!

Oh, and the Angry Bird in the Bettini horn:

I should have taken the lid off the Edison on the left, It is a nickel plated model B Triumph in the mahogany cabinet.

My partners daughter added the angry bird, she has them in many of my horns, there's another slant on "Put a sock in it"
