HOLY COW! Wish I could get an HMV 460 lumiere pleated diaphragm gramophone for $775. If I got one here for twice that price I'd think myself lucky.

Wonderful pics. Shane is right; the Lumiere is a bargain at that price. I wonder if the diaphragm is original?
But OH how I want that Triumph with the Music Master horn........ :shock:

Looks original to me, but I'm no expert & I have only seen a couple examples in person.
I'll let you have the Triumph Jim, if I can have the Zemerphone :)
I wouldn't say no to the Little Wonder either.

It was one of the best shows ever, IMHO, things were selling, the crowds were steady and I came home with 3 fantastic machines and a bunch of great records. Machine details in due time, but a couple of you guys know already... :lol:

Need to go next year. Since I moved to New England I haven't been able
to get to the Union show. I think the Tooled Leather 8-30 has been repainted
and the colors are wrong. Glad to hear machines were trading hands. I like
the Rigid Arm and the Johnson M. Was the Berliner "Hand Wind" an original or
a reproduction? The board looked too light.

"Thanks", I said wiping the drool from my chin from lusting over all the great stuff!

Hope I can get there one day. Do plan to get to Orlando in January, though.

The TLP 8-30 wasn't right, the colors were indeed off, I didn't look too closely at it, but it may have been refinished. They had a pretty dreadful looking 8-9 as well that was a real mess. I didn't look to see what they were asking for it.
