I can't believe I said that.

Very nice !
Looks like you did well.
I'm not terribly familiar with Triumphs, but based on the end-gate, "signature" decal, carriage lift-lever and shaver, I'd figure this is an early Triumph B, circa 1906 ?

I want to see the Triumph morning glory horn and, anxious to see you flea market booth, that was as promised.

Here are a couple of pictures of my booth. They are not high quality at all because I took these pictures with my iPad. At the flea market I do not work alone. I work with another phonograph collector and our booth is a mix of his phonographs and my phonographs. Yesterday someone made a $400 down payment on one of mine.

I will get a picture of the horn but it looks like crap because someone painted it gold.

And I never said it was a Triumph morning glory, it's just a 10 panel morning glory horn. The Triumph horn was a 12 panel horn I believe.
