Brian, I would keep that one, if I were you... it's an interesting cabinet.
That "J" tube looks like it's installed backwards...

Yes. Should make a nice auction for folks who can't/won't get out right now. $9.95 opening bid, with no reserve. And you don't have to drive down here to NC pick it up. I'll be happy to pack and ship it to anyone in the US. Including you, Brianu

This cabinet design is based on a Georgian wine cooler in the Sheraton style. It first appeared c.1922 as the Tyrela gramophone, and was copied by several other makers including Academy.
The large circular lid often cracks in old age, but the example pictured looks to be in excellent condition and must be rare in the USA. Current bid $232.50 and well worth it.
