The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

This nice old single spring motor Columbia phonograph came into the shop yesterday in need of repairs. I don't think I'll have any problems with that, but I'd like to know what model it is. Any thoughts?

Thanks! Cliff

Cliff,

The model is a Columbia "BN" Model. It has a Rear Mounted Black Crane.

That's B N....


Believe that the earlier Columbia "BA" Model was in the same exact case, but had a Front Mounted Horn and different "Nickeled" crane..
