[Phono-L] ITEMS FOR SALE
Folks, I have a couple of items for sale if you have interest. All items plus shipping to you. 1 - A very nice original Columbia recorder, most likely for a Q or Eagle. It comes in an original, though worn box. The original diaphragm is present and intact, though the cutter is missing. It looks like it will clean up nicely - $55.00 2 - Two very nice reproduction black leather elbows for your early Victor, Columbia, Zonophone, or Berliner machine. These are nicely made leather elbows suitable for use on an early front mount machine. $25.00 each. 3 - Original, very rare 15 all-brass seamless horn for an early Edison or Columbia cylinder phonograph. In excellent original condition. This early horn is made the same as band instruments of the day. It has a single zipper seem straight up the middle of the horn. These horns are rarely found. When seen, they have many times been polished. This horn retains its original patina. If has a few dents, but nothing significant. It is a wonderful example of a very early and rare horn. $500.00 4 - Edison Blue Amberol - 5445 - Good News - Fox Trot Dave Kaplan His Orchestra. Excellent condition with no issues and original box. The tune is snappy and recognizable. It was recorded in 1927, getting close to the end of the Blue Amberol series which ended in 1929. $150.00 5 - Edison Blue Amberol - 5500- My Blue Ridge Mountain Home - Fox Trot B.A. Rolfe His Orchestra. Excellent condition with no issues and original box. The tune is snappy and recognizable. It was recorded in 1928, getting close to the end of the Blue Amberol series which ended in 1929. $150.0 6 - A beautiful little Columbia Q cylinder phonograph with an original Q reproducer and an original 10 cone horn. This is the case less version with the black stenciled base. The phonograph is in excellent condition throughout. The early, black-plated bedplate is clean with only a few areas of missing paint. The nickel-plated parts are clean as well. . The original Graphophone stenciling on the bedplate, many times wiped out is nearly perfect. This is the nicest Q that I've seen in quite a while, the ideal antique cylinder phonograph to own if space is at a premium. The machine is in excellent operating condition, too, the motor is strong, and the governor keeps a steady speed. It will play an entire cylinder plus with one winding. The reproducer is especially nice, playing clear and loud, loud, loud!!! The cone horn is possibly the best part of this machine. It is truly stunning. $550.00 If you have interest, please email me at mshawnorou...@gmail.com. I have pictures of these items as well. Thank you Shawn ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.org
[Phono-L] Cool battery Jar For Sale
FOR SALE: A very nice blue porcelain battery jar. Battery Jars such as this would have been used singly, or in tandem to power early phonographs, fans, and other devices.

There are no cracks or other damage, other than normal wear, age, etc. A super cool display piece. Pictures are available! Price is $100.00 plus shipping. I can also deliver this to the Wayne show in a couple of weeks. No PayPal on these items, but I ship promptly with a check.

[Phono-L] FOR SALE - Very Rare Montgomery Ward Catalog - Reproduction
I have for sale a high, high quality reproduction of a very rare 1898 catalog. This 16 page catalog was produced by Montgomery Ward. Interestingly enough, It introduced some of the most important and rare machines known today including the Edison H coin-op, Universal Talking Machine coin-op, Polyphone, and Trade Mark Berliner. There are 16 pages chalked full of great information on early phonographs and gramophones. The reproduction was made directly from the original catalog. It was done using high-quality paper consistent with the original. This is a chance to get the benefit of great early information from a rare catalog, without having to pay the rare catalog price! Pictures available on request, I've only had a limited number of reproduction catalogs made. When they're gone, I don't plan to have any more made. The price is $20.00 which includes USPS Priority shipping in the USA. Contact me at mshawnorou...@gmail.com with interest.

[Phono-L] Columbia No 1 Cylinder Record Cabinet
I have a super nice cabinet for sale. It is early as well. Around 1900, Columbia produced a line of record cabinets. This is the style number one, and I believe the nicest of them all. It is a perfect small size, with great detail. It has the original pulls and finish. I prefer this cabinet to any for look and function. it originally came with 75 wooden pegs. Those are not present in this cabinet, but have been reproduced by others in the collector community. This one would be more expensive to ship, but I would if you had interest. I can deliver it to the Stanton auction in November. The price is $750.00. I can email pictures upon request.

[Phono-L] ITEMS FOR SALE
FOR SALE - Really great all brass c24 inch cylinder horn with a 9 inch bell. The horn is solid with only minor dings. It is excellent horns to use on a machine as it is not too big, but not too small either. The nine inch bell makes this distinctive, and of a very pleasing proportion. Pictures available upon request It is priced to sell at $150.00, plus shipping to you FOR SALE - Are 25 Concert Cylinder pegs for an early concert cylinder cabinet or carrying case. 18 of these are of recent manufacture and would need some minor additional shaping/ smoothing to be complete.

I don't think you would even be able to buy the wood stock to make these for what I've priced them. Priced at $35.00, plus actual shipping only. A picture is available upon request. FOR SALE - A Hawthorn and Sheble nickel plated crank. These were found on the early Hawthorn and Sheble under glass cabinets. They could also be used on other machines.

[Phono-L] Holiday Sale
I have several items available for sale today! All are available through this list and others. Packing is free, shipping is whatever it costs to get it safely to you. Pictures available upon request. If you have interest, just email me at mshawnorou...@gmail.com Edison Triumph A - I have only dusted off the dirt. It is an Edison Triumph in the earliest green oak case. This one has the square corners, indicating an early case. Even more special, there is a neat celluloid dealer tag! The tag reads Jacot Music Box Co 39 Union Square New York. This is a very respectable machine. The motor is strong. All gears mesh well, and it runs very quiet with good solid springs. The upper works are really clean with most of the pen-striping present. There is a little belt slippage that should be able to be corrected with a tighter belt, or tighten the pulley. I'm leaving all the fine adjustments up to the new owner! There is original finish throughout. The case is very nice with an excellent decal. And again, a super cool dealer tag! There are no extra holes or any veneer damage on the lid. It could look even better with a little cleaning. There is no horn. The original square hole crank and a very nice early model C reproducer come with this machine. The first $875.00 takes it. Edison Standard Model A. Here we have a machine straight from the owners house. It is an Edison Standard in an early green oak case. Overall, this one is a nice machine as is, and with a little attention, would be a really great piece. The motor is strong. All gears mesh well, and it runs very quiet with a good solid spring. You can see a previous repair, or braze, on the speed control arm. This is solid, works fine. The upper works are really clean with most of the pen-striping present. There is original finish throughout. The case is very nice with some obvious denting on the front, most probably due to crane. There are no extra holes or any veneer damage on the lid. It would really spiff up with a little cleaning. There is no horn, and no crank. It came with most of a model H reproducer. It also came with an original chip brush (or most of it) The great news, I'ts cheap. The first $215.00 takes it. Early Columbia Crank - Here we have another really nice item! it is an unusual, early Columbia crank. The knob secured on by a screwed in post rather than a rivet is the clue that this is a super early crank. It has an early knob as well. Overall, nice plating, all original little piece. A great upgrade for an early Columbia disk or cylinder machine. It should work well on several early models! The first $65.00 takes it. Edison Dictaphone Reproducer - An unusual piece, in super condition. This is clearly for a Dictaphone. However, I put it in a regular Edison carriage, and it played a record very well!. This one looks to be complete and all original The first $25.00 takes it. Michael Shawn O'Rourke 248 915 0954 ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.org
