FOR SALE: EARLY 1901 Zonophone Model A - REDUCED - $5995
Posted: Sat Jan 14, 2017 5:42 pm
I am parting with my early Zonophone front mount Models A, B, C, and D. I am listing them separately. The Zonophone C has been sold.
None of these Zonophones are easy to find. In order of difficulty, hardest to find to easiest, I would say Model B, then D, then A, and finally C.
In my years of collecting Zonophones, this is one of the BEST Model A's that I have seen. I will let the photographs of the machine speak for themselves! My words will add nothing. (I have more photographs available for the asking.)
This machine is original. I believe the crank to be the only reproduction part. It is absolutely of the highest quality. The closed face reproducer alone would fetch $2000!.
This is the EARLIEST of the Zonophone Model A's. It has the "pressed fit" horn elbow and the more centrally located travel arm support, which is secured from the underside of the motor board. This dates the machine to 1901 at the latest.
Accept for the best and most rare, phonographs are down in price. I am asking the reduced price of $5995. This is a good price considering the market, but also reflects the condition and rarity of this machine!
Please come to Green Bay and see this machine in person. I can deliver to the Union, Illinois phonograph show. I will ship if that is what the new owner desires. Buyer pays for shipping unless we come to a different arrangement.
Please ask questions! I have more photographs if needed. If you are interested in this machine, please PM me! You may also PM me and just say "SOLD!!!"
