The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I'm amazed at how much good stuff is still out there. I saw ColoradoPhonograf's post so thought I'd add this one. A week ago I bought a really nice oak Edison B-80 thru CL and asked the seller where he got it. He mentioned that it came from an estate sale. I hadn't looked at all at local estate sales but took a look earlier this week and came across one with a walnut Victrola but no pics. I figured probably something common but when they posted pics today I was pleasantly surprised. I called to ask how they ran their sales, I don't go to many, and asked if she'd mind telling me the price. It was a good deal so I said I was interested. She said to come on down tonite to have a look even though the sale didn't start til tomorrow. I gladly accepted her invitation and although the top of the lid has more than the usual water damage, I carted it home. Added to the Edison, and the 10-35's it has been a pretty good week! Now to plan the room addition to hold all this!!

Nice score Steve. Also great that it came with all the trimmings. My 17 was found the same way. Congrats!!!!.

Gorgeous! Great find.

Very nice!!!
Congratulations and best of luck!

Still among my top three Victrola models. What a beauty in Walnut too. Nothing like having the albums to complete it. Congrats!

Steve, I was in communication with the estate sale manager when she told me that the owner had just sold it though another means. At least a great guy got it... I'll have to come visit it on my next trip to TX.
