Last week find

Post by James »

A record collector friend brought me to the widow, who was disposing her husband phonographs. I brought home a Victrola Orthophonic Credenza, Edison Diamond Disc B34 and a free table top machine Phonola, called "Virgil" for a sum of $225.00. I called it my lucky day. All are in working condition, but the "Virgil".
