Not my thing, but looks like a great project including cabinet. Have no idea if the price is fair.

I would definitely make space for that at $150..... Hope someone can get it!

If that horn is original paint, what a great candidate for a little touch-up and preservation!!! The horn alone might be worth the price.

If a Forum member gets it, let us know. Would be great to see it's rehabilitation.

Wow! Great deal! Look at the needle tin holder on the back of the cabinet, attached to the back bracket thumbscrew.

I contacted the seller and he said it has been sold for "a while" but he can't figure out how to delete the listing off of Craigslist.

Not surprised since the pics were taken 12 years ago 2010... :lol:

I believe the holder mounted to one of the back bracket bolts is for a Victor black cardboard needle box...not a tin.

My apologies to all who followed this thread for an item "sold for a while." I didn't occur to me that someone would leave a listing "active" when the item was no longer available; I would never have posted it to the Form had I known. (and thanks to cweastlick for sorting it out.)

I agree with JerryVan.......no need to apologize for showing what may have been a great deal for a member.
