Mystery Motor....Any Thoughts???

Post by gramophone78 »

A lady here has offered me this motor with crank. However, there is no turntable and I have no idea what it's from ( Columbia I think??). I also have no need for it. The motor seems to run fine. Any thoughts??.

Yes, it looks like a little Columbia motor to me. It looks like the motor in my Col BZ. Jerry Blais

Thanks guys. I had a feeling Columbia. Too bad I just can't use it. She has three painted horns also. However, for cylinder machines and therefore not what I collect. Thank again for the info :).
