Duh I screwed up on this. There is no GEM D. Don't know what I was thinking except for the G at the head of the serial number.

The seller has missed one important point, the halfnut and bar are missing so it cannot play a record. Since some rust on the horn has simply been painted over it would be hard for the seller to miss it. Thus, the glowing description should be taken with a grain of salt...

According to the seller this is purportedly a red gem. I beg to differ. It's a odel G for one thing. And the paint and striping job are horrible! Perhaps the eller can be pardoned as he doesn't seem to sell a lot of phonographs, it's ainly radio tubes. ere's the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/320872892193 ohn Robles ______________________________________________ hono-L mailing list ttp://phono-l.org _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.org _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.org
