I had a chance to get this little Pathe inside horn machine, cabinet needed a little tightening, and it was only $65. But I got the feeling that the guy didn't want to ship it because he asked if I would pick it up. I said I would need it shipped, so he got the price for me, and I said ok. Then he said, well, someone else was going to pick it up, so I need to see if they want to do that. He asked, and they did. I was not happy.. J

It kind of reminds you of an old fashioned wood box coffee grinder - taller than it is wide. That is a great looking machine and very unusual. I'm with you, I appreciate all phonographs, but am not a big fan of large floor models. That being said, there is one other external horn Pathe that I would love - it is a large floor model machine probably used in public venues - I think coin op - that has a very large horn on a long neck - it looks like it could be six feet tall. Again, I am not sure of the model, but it is probably a very expensive machine. I really like Pathe's - they seem to have a Rube Goldberg essence about them...
