The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Recently I purchased a Columbia BF Graphophone from Gary aka fmbillz, who is a member on here. It just arrived today, and it looks amazing. I will need to get a horn for it. As the ones I have are for Edison phonographs with a crane.

Now, I can look for the Columbia six inch cylinder records.

It looks very nice.

Great machine. I've always loved that model.

Make sure the reproducer is tuned before playing any (scarce and expensive) Columbia 20th Century 6" cylinders.

Looks magnificent!
