The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I am selling a very nice mahogany Edison Amberola 1-B. It plays very nicely. The finish on the mechanism and cabinet are original. When purchased it was missing the cylinder clips. I replaced with "egg crate" type dividers similar to ones found in the very early Amberola 1-A. It is missing the slide adjuster for the auto stop. This is a matching number Amberola where the serial number in the ID tag matches the serial number on the mechanism.

I travel from Oregon to the APS Midwest Expo in Chicago next June as well at the APS California Expo in August. I am happy to deliver to either expo at no extra cost. The price is $1800. I am happy to take a deposit with the balance to be paid in cash at the expo. If it does not sell, I doubt if I will bring it to either Expo.

I am happy to answer any questions. The buyer is the first to PM "SOLD!" A question or expressed interest does not imply the Amberola is on hold.

Thanks, Jerry Blais

Nice to see that this is the value of these. I hope to have one someday.

A great price for a desired machine. I'm sure this won't last long, good luck Jerry.

Free delivery to the APS Midwest or California Expos! A modest deposit will hold it for you. Questions?
