The next machine I am looking for is a banner Triumph, preferably one that
has the 2/4 minute gearing update. Would also be interested in a Edison
Spring Motor. I am in no rush, but if anyone has a nice one they would like
to sell or do some kind of trade with I would be interested in buying.
This is all based on a potentially faulty premise that the buyer will
actually follow through with the purchase. When I upgraded my iPhone from
a 3GS to a 4 I put the 3GS on ebay, some foreign buyer bid up to 600 bucks
for the device, which was several hundred dollars more than it was worth.

Looks like the top works of an Alva, that is pretty darn rare. If complete, you
could mate it with a triumph B cabinet and have a full Alva.

It's probably someone who doesn't know what the machine is worth, they
both have lots of feedback (the bidders). I can't imagine paying more than
500 bucks for that machine. The one interesting thing of note is that it
has a slotted crank, not threaded. My banner standard A has a threaded
crank

Mine is in the short (green) oak case, the motor has the external speed
control and is held up against the bed plate/no springs and it has a

Hello Phonolisters:
Today while I was out looking for records I came across an Edison Diamond
Disc player, model 250 that had several items that I have never seen
before.
I am looking at a couple Edison spring motor machines, I have never owned one
previously and wanted to know what to look for. I am looking for one that is
reasonably original and unmolested. How long and what serial numbers would you
expect to have the brass mandrel, and what reproducer goes
