The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Some have asked for some more detailed pictures - here they are - also the serial number is 78947 E if it helps

I do need to clean out the gold fish and fruit loops that went un-noticed until after the pics were taken - I do love my kids

Very, very nice, Newbie. The presence of the original albums is a plus.

Wow, how wonderful !! you have all of the original lettered gold pull albums as well !! I am assuming that they are all full of period Victor and Columbia Records as well. Fantastic !!

Now that's what I'm talking about. All +++++++++'s on this one. This being so complete will do very well IMHO. I love the gold fish....... . I think they just add to the flavor . You are welcome to PM me for an offer whenever you like.

Considering that $575.00 in 1913 is equivalent to $12,853.81 in U.S. dollars today due to inflation, 2-3 thousand for this beautiful machine is a bargain!!

The bargain is even better - - the original price was $275.00! (That included $25 in records.)

Oops! Mis-read the cursive 'two.' Heck, that's still $6.147.47 today and the bonus 25.00 is $558.86!

George & Bill......maybe I can borrow some money from you for this. However, I would need today's money... .

Are 2-3 thousand pesos ok? Seriously, even if I found one at that price something would have to go. I still haven't found a good roost for the Schubert we just obtained.

Bill

I feel your pain, Bill. I've have a Schubert sitting in my basement for a couple of years now!
