The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Appreciate help finding one of these.

I you would be satisfied with a well made reproduction, Ron Sitko (contact info in the Links section of our Forum) makes a good replica.

Jerry Blais

Thanks Jerry but I'm holding out for the real McCoy.

I am not sure what size that is... I have a short fall off type columbia. If that is what it takes?

Sorry for being late chiming in on this thread. I just happened to stumble on this. The crank for a Columbia AA is the same for a late Model A, AT, Top wind AJ, second model AJ, and the BV/BVT. As discussed before, these are fall off cranks, and easily lost. These are scarce, but they do turn up. I would get the repro from Ron Sitko, so you can at least play the machine. Then I would be on the look out for one.

I found 3 spare cranks, if either of them fit your needs, send me an email with your shipping address. “Free To Good Home”.

Hi Ray,
I could use crank #1 for a machine missing it.

Paul,

The good-will offer was to the originator of this thread, who is apparently a serious collector. I hope you're not trying to jump in and deny him the opportunity before he reads my post.

Raphael

Raphael,

This is great news. I will call you shortly.

Thanks.

John

John,

Crank #1 is on the way to you and the other two are going to another collector locally.
