[USlakeside]

Translation:

"This differs from the antecedent gramophone in the spring potential has been tripled rather than doubled which allows you to track your movement rotation for 15 minutes once launched. The strength of the mechanism corresponds to the muello or spring. The box is varnished oak sculpture constituting a true luxury furniture. We deliver ready to work complements provided with a Morning Glory horn and a box containing 200 needles

This unit with wooden horn, see the section 45

Price loose horn, new model, 30 pesetas

I can't believe it's still available! How long would a Victor horn machine that probably exists in single digit numbers, be available on here normally?

The Spanish collector who has the website your catalogue scan came from, appears to have the 1911 catalogue as well which includes my machine showing as a "No. 9"? Is there any chance you could get a scan of that for me and post it here or PM / email it to me please? I don't speak Spanish, unfortunately!

I'm just curious if you offered this machine to the collector in Spain..??. Although, he may already have one.. . Clearly a buyer and I would think "if" a machine he would like.......he will want to buy it.

Thanks Steve. I just put up an inquiry for offers last night, so it hasn't been available long!

I see that you cleaned the horn elbow. It looks much nicer now. You should also remove the black paint from the nickeled back bracket.

Your machine must be a little later than 1909. It has another motor. Look at the position of the crank in comparison to the machine in the catalogue. The model number and the selling price had also changed. Ask the Spanish collector. I think your machine is a number 5, but I could be wrong.

Can you please also ask the Spanish collector for a scan of the catalogue illustration of my machine? Many thanks!

I appreciate your machine is newly listed for sale but if it was a Victor it would've been snapped up long before you'd even had a chance to list it!
