Original finish shows some crazing.
Mute ball needs to be re-attached.

That's in amazingly good shape and the price is a steal. Somebody's getting a deal. Did the reproducer come with it? Is it the early one with the plate for mounting the stylus bar? If so, I'd try to keep them together if I could. Good luck.

I agree with Bruce. Priced at $425 with a rebuilt reproducer including a new stylus this is a heck of a deal. If I didn't already own one of these I would be buying it. Look at the bed plate it is in such nice condition!

Such a good deal! I really enjoy diamond disk recordings played on my own A250 and the price your asking is less than I paid for mine. Really a steal of a deal.

I'm trying to give a collector, who otherwise could not afford one of these early Edison Disc machines, a chance to own one at a very reasonable price.
Also, selfishly, I just purchased a Victor Orthophonic 10-50 that is begging for a spot in the living room and I need to make room.
The 10-50 is by far, the heaviest phonograph I've ever moved.
Need a day off and some Bengay before moving it from the van to the house. :lol:
Will post pictures soon.
