Very cool cylinder machine. What is it??

It's a called a Puck and I believe it is German.

However I would not personally buy it at its current price as it is about double what a puck will usually fetch in Very good condition. Look around and you can get them for around the $300 mark.

OK Great. Thank you. I just thought this one had a good look to it. I like the color of the horn. I'll have to keep an eye out for one in the $300.00 range.

Keep in mind that Pucks have no feedscrew mechanism, so they are probably best used with celluloid cylinders.
