Frow says it's a No. 100 horn and a single spring motor - similar to the other London models. The other interesting note is that "It was the first of the cheap Edison models to have hinged access to the motor compartment." So I would assume the motorboard is different for this than other models and would need to be from another LC-38. I've never seen the inside of one so don't know what it's supposed to look like. So if I was to get a full setup I might be interested but first priority would be to try and find another good home for the cabinet.

If not, I may have a horn and motor for you for a reasonable price.

The outside is in good condition but has been used as a cabinet and not a phonograph for many years. Both grills are in good shape, which was the main reason for not leaving it there. If anyone has the works and looking for a cabinet please contact me off list. Or conversely, if anyone is looking to offload a motor, motorboard and horn for this I might be convinced to keep it. The main detraction is the record storage woodwork is not complete and dividers are missing.

I turned it down because of the condition of the cabinet, and grill was destroyed and it did not have the original reproducer but instead one of those off brand tone arm and 78rpm conversion reproducers. But I believe the rest of everything including the motor and crank etc. was there and in working order. If you are interested let me know what you would be willing to pay for what I described and I could contact the fellow and see if he still has it and is interested in letting it go for that amount.
