The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I acquired a batch of parts this weekend and my preliminary research makes me think I may have the upper works to a Columbia BG Graphophone? Y'all look and tell me what you think. It is missing the reproducer, the belt, and the crank. However, the motor board, lid, upper works, and motor are present....?

I thought of maybe trying to find the base and a reproducer. Or, I will be happy to sell this to a fellow collector attempting to complete a project. I have several other projects before I will even get to this.... I don't have time to disassemble the motor and remove parts. However, I would consider selling the lid as a separate deal.

I will throw this out there... $150 for the upper works, motor board, motor..... $50 for the lid.... Plus actual shipping costs.

Shoot me a message if you're interested.

Also, I am open to input. Would this be easy to complete or should I just pass it along...
