The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Not mine.

I can't tell for sure but looks like it has and end gate?

If I had to guess, it looks like that might belong to Amberola(Ronnie)

Ronnie's not in Raleigh... he's just outside Charlotte.

True, but sometimes listing are on surrounding areas Craigslist. Isn't that a Hexaphone in the background? Nah, just kidding.

Definitely an endgate: a Triumph B, upgraded with a MM Cygnet horn.

Thanks for sharing your wisdom, Bill! Might you recommend a good resource a newbie like me might use to trace the Triumph line, say from Banner A to E (or above?)

I know the A was 2 min and the E was 2/4 (right?), but that's pretty much my limit. I'd enjoy learning when gates ended, when the first 4 min adapter (factory or after-market) started, etc.

Thanks to EVERYONE who makes this forum such a generous wealth of experience and knowledge. You are great (and kind) historians!

The best resource for the Triumph model variations is George Frow's Edison Cylinder Phonograph Companion; now out of print but available quite reasonably as an e-book from the Mulholland Press.

All the Triumph models (except possibly the C) are also illustrated in full color in various Fabrizio/Paul books.

Thank you [AGAIN], George!
