The phonograph has desirable \"combination\" gearing and can play all types of cylinders -- 2 minute, 4 minute, brown wax, black wax, black celluloid, Blue Amberol, Indestructible, etc.The phonograph is in excellent working order, and it needs nothing to be enjoyed immediately.
Japanned finish on the phonograph\'s bedplate is still deep black and glossy, and the gold decorations are still prominent. The phonograph comes with its original shaver (complete) and an original \"H\" reproducer. A small knurled nut on the bedplate, behind the feedscrew conceals a mounting hole for a morning glory horn crane.
The motor is in excellent condition, with ample torque. The governor assembly is working properly, and the pitch doesn\'t waver as a cylinder plays through. All of the gearing beneath the bedplate is clean, and the phonograph plays cylinders with ease.The cabinet is pristine, and the original cabinet decal is in excellent condition. The cabinet finish is original, and it\'s still silky smooth. The wood has been beautifully preserved, and the finish is clean.The horn is original, ca. 1904, and its condition is excellent. The floral decorations were hand-painted and applied at a later date.
I\'ll include with the phonograph two Edison Blue Amberol cylinders. If you get tired of listening to them, there are plenty of other titles available on and elsewhere. Also included is an original oiling can.
Overall, a super nice cylinder phonograph that\'s ready to go and requires no restoration or servicing.I\'m one of \'s best known, most highly regarded sellers of antique phonographs. I\'ve been sellingand shippingthem for more than 25 years. When you purchase an antique phonograph from me, you\'ll receive a phonograph that arrives safely because it\'s been carefully packed (byme, not by some well-intentioned but nonetheless confounded, doe-eyed teenager working at the UPS store who wouldn\'t know a phonograph from a farm tool), and you\'ll receive a phonograph that includes thorough but easy-to-understand set-up and operating instructions, so you won\'t be left scratching your head, trying to figure out how it works. Sure, you can probably get a lower price from Joe and Janet Barn-Find, but when your \"bargain\" arrives broken, and without any hint of how it works or how you might be able to put it back together, you\'ll realize that you really do get exactly what you pay for.
