Yes, and it's the second Gilbert phono I've seen on Craigslist in the space of a year. The other listing was in the San Francisco Bay area and was sold. I can't tell on this present listing if this one has the mother of pearl inlaid soundbox. Perhaps someone who's familiar with the back of said soundboxes would know.
