Eventually it will look like the Sonora sitting besides it. The Sonora was also in really bad shape when my wife got it at an auction in WV years ago. To this day she has not told me what she shelled out for the Sonora, something about another woman told her she was leaving with the machine come he$$ or high water :shock: Cheers

The Sonora is quite a beauty. You did a fine job of restoration. Check out mine here. http://forum.talkingmachine.info/viewto ... =2&t=21672
