The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Nice machine Anderson.

I would like to suggest that you post new photos of your machine as you have it displayed now but who knows it may end up being listed for sale in Alaska next?

It has the rare Polyphone attachment. For $500 it's a steal!edisonplayer

Here are some pics. If you look at the carriage, you will see that somebody carved out some metal so that a newer C or H reproducer could fit in one of the carriage circles instead of having two of the older automatic styles. That is because they also converted the machine to a 2 and 4 minute. I have since removed the 2/4 minute stuff off and have installed automatic reproducers and a nice brass 2 minute mandrel.

It is 2 machines in the listing. Just look at the case trim on the first picture and compare it to the (stolen) pictures after it, they are completely different. Ugh, not even a smart scammer...

The first picture is of the dust cover. It completely covers the machine. All of the pictures are of the same machine and yes it is a scam.

Oh. I didn't know that anything bigger than a Gem had a cover over the whole thing... But, as the old saying goes, you learn something new every day.

Both the early Concert and Spring Motor had them.

I think this is probably the guy who use to say his uncle was "an auxetophone collector." At one time he identified himself as Joe Hurley, but his name is not in this ad. His previous listings usually used phonograph pictures that I saw on other sites. I don't know how he is scamming anyone since he can't be contacted.
