Baby Jeanette not the usual?

I recently purchased this BabyJeanette phonograph and I'm looking for some information on when it was made and if it's a rarer model because of the Pressed cardboard horn design. All the other Baby Jeanette I've seen have a metal arm that's attached directly to the top of the base.

I've not seen one of these before, so I rotated the image...

Thank you for rotating the picture.....looks better now. Does anyone have an idea of what this is worth?

No, but how much did you pay for it? And, does it work and have a crank?
The reproducer/tonearm are sitting on the wrong side of the turntable, for what it's worth....

It was made by Jeannette Toy & Novelty Company of Jeannette, PA... not the same as "Baby" machines made in Ohio.

Thanks for the information. I purchased it for $54.00 and it came with a key to wind it with. It works fine. Does anyone know where I can find out more about this machine or other models that this company made?
