Maybe this is a real external horn phono? ...or is it a crapo? They say it's a Columbia Model 222, but a quick google search I couldn't find anything definitive. Well, if it's real its a great price for an external horn. ...altho it looks like they have a DD on the turntable. :o

The Grafonola series were all internal horns machines.
So something is fishy here. Or crappy.....
