hi george and all i agree with what you say i enjoy being single because its make it easier to collect too wives seem to enjoy it at first until we get a large collection then as we get more primo machines they shake their head at their cost, but as we all know, we love the machines first but they do make a fairly good investment. i for one enjoy my concert / opera. it is my work horse when i play all my cylinders. it has the best sound as far as i am concerned, but like you i have a few jewels. most of the rest are nice machines but the hunt is the most fun not the ownership. happy collecting to all rob From john9ten Fri Mar 5 06:18:58 2004 From: john9ten (john robles) Date: Sun Dec 24 13:10:35 2006 Subject: [Phono-L] Columbia-Europa Real Photo In-Reply-To: <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[email protected]>

I'm always looking for catalogs and/or advertising featuring these machines - and of course, different examples of these phonos. If you have any info or something you want to part with, drop me a line!
