The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Quite rare perhaps.

I have only heard of one other and that is owned by a member on here I think.

I guess the gramophone is the same design as an orchorsol - with just the different Celebro badge / logo ?

I own a Celebro sound-box and am surprised that the ebay gramophone seems to have an Orchorsol badged sound-box. Wouldnt it have had the Celebro sound-box fitted as standard ???

Even though the gramophone is a non-runner and is missing it's record storage flap, it would be worth buying for the soundbox.
The soundbox is a simplified non-adjustable version. Here is the earlier version on my Orchorsol portable :

True. The celebro is very rare though (much rarer than Orchorsol gramophones) and a replacement record storage flap could be made fairly easily.

I still think it is a shame that it doesnt have the Celebro soundbox to match. Orchorsol sound-boxes are far more common.

Oh, here is a video showing the person who owns the other celebro:
