$ 369.86

Availability: 100 in stock
  • Condition: I have played a cylinder on this and it produces the voices that are on the cylinder. But their is some noise or static in the background perhaps this is normal for these I do not know. It looks like this has been refinished on the exterior with maybe and oil finish applied on the exterior. The interior looks original as far as the finish is concerned. I do not know if all the parts are original Don't know enough about these to say. Don't know if this has been repaired or if it is in the original condition but I assume it has been worked on considering its age. I think it might be missing a grill piece in front of the player inside and the fabric/ grill cloth is missing as well the belt looks old. That is what I can see I am not an expert on these but I will gladly answer all your questions. SEE Pictures sold as is I have shipped many old instruments but never one of these if you have special packing requirements please let me know that I will do my best.

    EDISON AMBEROLA  BV 1  CYLINDER  PHONO,  AS IS TESTED AND WORKING.  WITH 1 CYLINDER INCLUDED
    I bought this directly from the original owners family, it was used from time to time in their  home. It has a Mahogany or Walnut cabinet this is a B VI  it was built in 1913-1914 the serial # is 567X   I assume it has been worked on but I have no knowledge of that one way or the other.  I would guess these are fragile and I will do my best to pack it well I ship musical instruments often so I will do my best.   If you have questions I would be happy to respond. This works but I am not sure if it works as it originally  did so I am selling it as is. The belt looks old and worn it seems to slow down after it is on the roll maybe it needs to be wound more I am careful not to wind it much I just know so very little about this I cannot say exactly its condition.  So it is sold as is.
    Contact me for questions and I'll be happy to respond
