FOR SALE: EDISON "MANHATTAN" COIN-OP REPLICA

Offering one of the very last items from the huge "Dr. Z" collection that I saved for the past five years or so, but now it's time to cut it loose.

It's a replica of the famous Edison Manhattan, utilizing an original Standard mechanism and everything else made later. It works well, and I added a horn that can be utilized in place of listening tubes (also supplied).

A lot of time and expense went into the creation of this phonograph, the oak cabinet is extremely well constructed, with a nicely made porcelain sign atop.

Price is $4950 + shipping (around $400 to $600 in the U.S.) would be by R&L Carriers. I know how to pack it properly and promptly.

Please contact me by direct email: [email protected] - No PM's please.

That's a very fair price considering it would cost far more to have one made today. It appears to be very nicely constructed.

Indeed, my records indicate we valued it in the collection for much more than that.

Here's a video I just made: https://youtu.be/HtuerueP49k

It has a "C" reproducer and I think the sound may be a little weak due to the leaky connection to the horn; when using the sound tubes it sounds very loud indeed.
