BEETHOVEN EDISONIC OFFERED ON CRAIGLIST FROM DOUGLASVILLE, GEORGIA; POSTED JUNE 19, 2014

Model: Beethoven Edisonic
Serial number: 1977

Thanks to the keen eyes of Gene ("gemering") another Beethoven Edisonic has been spotted for sale; hope one of our Edisonic fans on this forum can give it a nice home.

Here's the link to the original posting, which will no doubt disappear soon:

The same phono is also posted on E-bay, with better photos:

The ad begins with this header:

"edisonic phonographer 1977 thomas edison record player - $600 (douglasville ga)"

The text of the ad reads:

"vintage thomas edison record player needs wiped down with wood cleaner other than that in good condition. missing one handle to open door $600 or best offer. please contact through email."

I see it had an adapter for regular 78's. If the Edisonic reproducer is included, that will be a great deal.

I just bought the Beethoven. It does not come with the Edisonic reproducer, but that is no problem. What I really want is another door knob! And Beethoven's have a unique knob. Does anyone know someone who can cast a knob for me from the one good knob? Marc.
