SOLD: RARE Columbia "Lyric" Recorder+Box- $225
Posted: Mon Jan 18, 2016 4:12 pm
I have here for sale a rare Columbia "Lyric" Recorder; this recorder will fit any of the Columbia Graphophone Cylinder phonographs that use the "Lyric" reproducer, such as the BE, BF, BK, BG.
This recorder is in all around great condition. Cosmetically I would probably grade it as being in mint condition, the plating being perfect, with no lifting, bubbling or any loss. The cutter seems to be in great condition, and appears to have a crisp and un-chipped edge. The diaphragm is also in great condition. The rubber gaskets have some loss, and would need to be replaced. This also comes with the original box, which is still sturdy. It is missing the original cotton padding, and the lid.
I'm looking for $225.00 from this one. After hours of searching on the web, the only one I've ever been able to find was listed here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Columb ... 403868356/
This link though has been deleted, but I have a saved copy which is uploaded below. That recorder sold for $249.99. As I stated, this is the only one I could find that has been sold as such on eBay. I came into possession of a number of these, and have already sold one to Bill ("Lucius1958" on this forum). This is the last one I'm selling, so grab it before it's gone!
First to say SOLD gets it.
