Hey fellow collectors: I am in need of a gold plated bullet brake for a Victrola L-Door 16. If anyone can help, please contact me off the list. Thanks

I just remembered seeing the $2000 in the title, and thought that was opening bid. -----Original Message----- From: Ron L'Herault [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2006 8:10 AM To: 'Antique Phonograph List' Subject: Re: [Phono-L] The use of subjective language whendescribingthecondition of an Antique Phonograph If they are close, they could end up with some nice parts for little money. I think each of the knobs is worth $5-10, then there is the motor. It is hard to tell but it could still be the early style and even if the motor was toast, and it had its original female thread crank, that would be worth $30-50, I would think. At least some of those doors look usable. The reproducer may be fine or at least rebuildable. The list goes on.

Nothing beats seeing them live in person, no doubt. But having lots of good detailed pictures can often suffice. I thought I had seen some strange uses of subjective language, but this one rivals them all. Thankfully, they sent pictures. Someone please define "a few broken pieces" after looking at this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170016319835 -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ron L'Herault Sent: Monday, August 07, 2006 9:18 AM To: 'Antique Phonograph List' Subject: Re: [Phono-L] Need your help Have a great vacation, George!
