The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Hi Folks and Thanks for looking!!

I have a Kalamazoo Duplex Phonograph listed. Complete machine. I decided to first list this machine unrestored and let the new buyer complete the machine to their liking. If I do not sell it, I will probably restore it and have it in pristine condition. When I found this machine it was missing a few parts. I added the needed parts and it is complete. The arm, yoke, reproducer, horn hanger, and crank are reproduction parts. The mainspring has come loose in the original motor and needs to be reattached or replaced. You seldom see compete machines to restore as they are worthy candidates and most collectors restore them before they hit the market. I am listing it now for $2850 plus shipping. Please note that the last one that I shipped cost me over $300 to ship. I will try and keep the price down as much as I can without cutting corners and throwing it into a box to ship out, but count on $250 at least. Ask any questions you need. If I can ship cheaper, I will pass that savings to you as I am not in the shipping business..

Thanks
Joe Cleveland

Restored this is a high dollar rare machine! Surprised no one has grabbed it!

Thanks for the input..I Thought that I would pass along a good deal here first. If there is no interest, I may try it on ebay at a higher price or Just restore it myself..

Bump...

I listed this machine on ebay at a higher price to cover fees, etc.. If there is any interest here, contact me directly..Open to reasonable offers...

Next step if no offers will be a restoration..

If you do go down that route would you be able to start a thread showing a step by step restoration as personally I would find that fascinating to follow.
