The Edison Home is singing again. Cliff Bolling serviced the motor. I assembled the machine today. I placed the 14" horn on the reproducer along with a record and started it. It played flawlessly. If you look carefully I think you can see it smile. :)

It is your phonograph so you can do what you want to o with it and all the goodies. Maybe if you had a good history on it you could keep it all together. Clean it up, and get it going first, then make you decision on keeping it all together or splitting it up. The small goodies are neat. That is a nice price for the find. Tom
