The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

a family friend has this multiphone 24 carousel music machine. We were looking to find it's worth and decide what we should do with it. any assistance would be appreciated.

Something as nice and valuable as this, I would contact Stanton's auction house to handle it for your friend.

I like the caution "Do Not Shake Machine"---as if!

Here is the most recent sale of a multiphone. This one you will notice has slightly different carvings, as it was special made (and one of a kind to my knowledge) Multiphone's vary in price from price between 50-100K depending on the year/market. Collectors aren't lined up to dish out that much cash, so it's hard to give a for-sure price.

Nice looking machine. I can see a number of parts missing and it needs a full restoration. That will affect the final price realized
