I wonder if this one will go for £1,000 (plus) as well ?

If the right people live close enough to collect the machine it could well top £1,000.

Interesting.

It looks in better condition than the other one too - and I might be imagining it but the horn seems bigger ?

Oh, and I would love to know what the old 78 records were that were with it - no specific mention of them otherwise I think ?

I thought it might have gone for more to be honest.

Seemed like a nice original machine maybe.
