SOLD: Decent Columbia Q Graphophone - $150

Post by FellowCollector »

Here's a pretty nice Columbia Q that cranks up nicely and has a very quiet, smooth and long running motor. Missing are the reproducer and speed control. I replaced the original main spring with a new spring and it runs for a long time on a full winding. I have found that this Columbia Q will play a cylinder with a reproducer by simply using the on/off brake adjusted to the appropriate mandrel rotational speed - until you find another speed control screw. There is no lid decal and I see no evidence that there ever was one (?) since the finish appears to be original. No horn with this. See pictures and video attached.

Please send a PM with interest, PayPal Friends, USPS extra at cost (probably $15 or so for US address), packed securely, shipped promptly, tracking number sent.
