I think the Columbia "AO" cylinder machine is the best of them. That strange looking reproducer was only used on 2 models (the AO & AW), so it's probably a reasonably desirable machine to anyone interested in Columbias Columbia apparently used pot metal in their motors, so that could be an issue with many collectors, but I dont think they're a common machine (not particularly rare either), so you shouldn't have too much trouble unloading it for a reasonable price.

I like the grandfather clock with the radio in it - fantastic

Me too SBH. I'm not sure if it's a Philco 70 or some other brand/model, but I've always liked the long case clock-radio combinations and the quirkiness of their being coupled together.
I dont think we ever manufactured anything like them here, but if I ever found one here in oz, I'd be hard pressed in deciding whether to put it in the lounge or vestibule lol.

Ok, ill have to look at them again. Like i said in another thread, i am very new to all this but have always loved the machines so i been buying them for years. I doubt i will sell many right now. I am mainly wanting to learn about them and i really want to get into restoring them!!

It's a Crosley.. I have about 500 old radios... i just sold one in an auction we had, i got sick to my stomach when i seen how much it went for.. Good thing i still have one left

Ack! LOL, this is what we were talking about in the "records..." thread, get the Victor record away from the Edison machine! You can only play Edison discs (the thick ones) on an Edison machine.


...but otherwise, your Edison is a C-200, which is a nice machine, IMHO. It's not common, but not rare either. It has a good sized horn and gold plated turntable parts. The C-200 is also known as the "Adam" due to its cabinet design. more info at: http://www.edisonphonology.com/c200.htm

The Brunswick is a nice machine because you have an Ultona reproducer. It has two stylus (styli?). In its current position, as pictured, it plays standard (lateral) 78's... but then you can rotate the reproducer so that it plays Pathé (vertical) discs... altho I could not tell you the condition of the sapphire stylus for playing vertical discs.
