SOLD Sonora Dealer Photographs $325.00
Posted: Wed Feb 05, 2025 2:09 pm
Twenty 8" x 10" photographs of Sonora phonographs assembled into a Shipman's "Common-Sense" binder. The real photos appear to have been glued by a dealer of the era to fabric pages in the binder.
Each phonograph model is individually pictured. Some are photographed against artist rendered backgrounds, some are placed on photo backgrounds. Artist rendered backgrounds are all light with the Supreme being the faintest. Photo backgrounds are darker. Each model name is written on the back of the fabric pages. The more uncommon phonographs have their prices listed also. Some have 4 digit reference numbers within the photographs.
The glue used has puckered stained and creased the fabric pages while not visually affecting the photographs. Scratches and wear affect the binder. The fabric pages are worn but seem to have somewhat protected the edges of the photographs. There are bumps and marks on the photographs themselves commensurate with age. Refer to pictures.
Models photographed are in order: Supreme, Invincible, Grand, Elite, Baby Grand, Minuet, Nocturne, Trovatore, Melodie, Louis XV ($325), Italian Renaissance ($325), Sheraton ($525), Adam ($325), Gothic ($1750), Jacobean ($1725), Louis XVI ($325), William and Mary ($525), Chippendale ($725), Colonial ($425), Duncan Phyfe ($725).
In 1917 you could purchase a new Stutz Bearcat for $2313.
