The Best Kind of Luck!

I got a Brunswick Panatrope 106 on ShopGoodwill for $4.98 this past summer. It was missing the reproducer and gooseneck part of the tonearm and was probably in the worst condition I've ever seen a phonograph in. I decided to completely take it apart and guess who was hiding way back in the horn!!!

Hope it's a lovely brass suprise!!

The reproducer is pot metal! But still in good condition. Will need a rebuild.

Also found lots of other things inside this horn including an Elgin watch tin (full of needles), an envelope from a jewelry store in Minnesota (still looking for the diamond earrings that were in it) and a couple of vintage checkers from a checkerboard.

Lots of cool stuff in this phono ;)
