The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Pics from the Saturday "parking lot meet" - 10/10/09 - Enjoy!

Wow! Some great items. What were the prices like - especially the multiphone
(is it incomplete?)

Some very nice pictures. Would like to see more. I have never been there. Is this show as big as Union? Great looking machines.

Drool, drool, envy, envy...

Thanks!

Heh, I'm not sure... someone checking in later may know the price. In the pictures it is incomplete, but I was told that there is a cylinder record "carousel" (with the machine just not installed at the moment) that spins around and plays multiple cylinders via the coin-op slot. One of the first jukeboxes? A beautiful machine!

Thanks for the great pics---almost like being there. The outside-horn disc machines you show us---are/were the horns just on the truck or were they being sold "horn-less?" Sure would like to see more pics if anybody took them.....

That Haydn Quartet record is a sought after title by them. But why is it encased in what looks like plexiglass? And did they want big bucks for it? It's not exactly a Caruso Zonophone.

It looks as if it came off a sports collector's wall.

I'd heed the first line of the song. "Take me out..."!

That one looks pretty darn mint, but I'd play it with bamboo often!

It was encased in plexiglass or something... I didn't ask about the price, I figured it's expensive because of the familiar song.

These are great!! More! I want that V with the wood horn. And the Opera....and the VI ..and and and ....
