Posted: Mon Feb 15, 2021 8:05 pm
Fellow Forum Members:
I am offering a very nice Busy Bee open works cylinder phonograph on a very well done reproduction nickel-plated fancy base. Here's some important observations:
100% original machine with a reproduction horn and base
Very nice original paint finish on the bedplate with nice decals and graphics
Original key
Original reproducer
Nice nickel plating throughout
NOTE: The mandrel has been changed out to a Columbia mandrel, so this machine plays Columbia and Edison cylinders, NOT Busy Bee cylinders
Runs great
The nickel plated fancy base is a reproduction. It is of high quality with clear reveals and detailing. The nickel plating has a darker patina to it. Very presentable. Has rubber feet on bottom
The nickel plated horn is a nice reproduction
This is a real nice little machine. Would fit into many collections.
I have taken lots of photos. PM me if you want to see more photos.
Asking $750 plus the cost of packaging and shipping via Fed Ex. Two small boxes in one larger box.
Personal check preferred payment on this one.
Please contact me via PM as to the machine's availability because, in addition to the Forum, it is for sale elsewhere.
