[Phono-L] Regal Phono
Greetings: I picked this Regal Phonograph up at auction over the weekend. I usually dabble in mostly columbia machines, but picked this one instead. Can anyone tell me the value of the machine? I cant find much about the Regal Company on the web other than they were produced between 1915 and 1923. I did find one website that offered a lot of history: http://www.capsnews.org/apn2006-1.htm Does anyone know what this goes for these days.

Re: [Phono-L] Regal Phono
Jeff, This is a very interesting machine. Because it's an off-brand, they are not worth as much like a Victor, columbia or Edison. I would say $200.00 tops for it.

I would be curious to see pictures of yours. - Acc to 'The Trademarks of Recorded Sound,' there was a Symphonola Mfg Co in Minnesota and they introduced their branded machine in 1918. allen _www.phonobooks.com_ (http://www.phonobooks.com) ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.org
Re: [Phono-L] columbia offshoots
Symphonola was sold by the Larkin Co. of Buffalo, NY. Larkin was a very interesting company -- with an office building designed by Frank Lloyd Wright (now demolished). They started out selling soap, then embraced premium schemes, and finally issued catalogs of cut-rate furniture and home accessories. In Western and Central NY plenty of Larkin firniture shows up, and there is a special kind of desk which in that vicinity is known as a Larkin desk.
