I wish I could see this in person. The cabinet is a beauty.

audiophile102, If you want to come up to Central Wisconsin, I still have this walnut Columbia available.
The wood graining looks much better in person.

The Baton Rouge machine appears to be a "Leader", or "Mignonette".
The oak cabinet does look nice... worst aspects seem to be the broken elbow (first version casting, with two limit-screws), and the hole-y turntable felt.
Elbows turn-up on e-bay from time to time, don't know if anyone is making repros...
Phono-Phan's is VERY nice, with that Satin Walnut...

Here is a picture of the record storage area. The record dividers are in mint condition. They are usually pretty rough on this model.
