The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Just saw this as the auction was ending (sorry if someone posted it earlier)....why

I guess someone just found the little horn cute lol.
What did the machine bring?
Those horns are worth a small fortune because Pixie Grippas & other machines that used them often turn up minus the auxiliary horn. The set-up actually works surprisingly well considering the size of the horn.

It was more than I would have expected for the machine, but not a huge price (between $200 and $300). Of course the one time I forgot to include the link to the auction....

Thanks Zeppy. I guess someone was after the horn. I remember young Shane auctioning one some time ago, and getting almost as much for it, as a full size horn sells for.
