The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I'll be posting several items today. All are available through this list and others. Packing is free, shipping is whatever it costs to get it safely to you. If you have interest, just email me at [email protected]

Here we have another really nice item! it is an unusual, early Columbia crank. The knob secured on by a screwed in post rather than a rivet is the clue that this is a super early crank. It has an early knob as well. Overall, nice plating, all original little piece. A great upgrade for an early Columbia disk or cylinder machine. It should work well on several early models!


The first $65.00 takes it.

I could use one of these Shawn, but is the knob cracked or is it the photo just playing tricks with my old eyes?

Another member on the forum shared that this is a Columbia A crank. I don't have an A to try it on, but thats the best concensus on what this goes to at this point.
