MisterJive47 Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 (edited) After attending for many years, this will be my first time attempting a booth at the Midwest show. I'm excited (and honestly, a bit nervous at the same time 😅😂). I'm bringing a bunch of cylinders, discs, as well as parts, motors, horns, and a handful of machines. The rarest thing I'm bringing is a rear mount Talkophone in need of restoration that I'd like to find a good home for, as well as my Victor II and IV outside horn machines and a 1935 Crosley Centurion 5 band tombstone radio. Looking forward to kibitzing with everyone and, hopefully selling some stuff for more hobby 💸 Edited June 14 by MisterJive47 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phono-phan Posted June 17 Author Share Posted June 17 I have to say that this was one of my best shows for selling phonographs and parts!!! Thanks to all involved in getting this show set up. I'm counting down the days until next year already. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less than ten minutes out on the floor. You sure bought a beauty. You'll have to share some videos on YouTube of it playing some fine Caruso or Melba records as the factory intended. 🤌🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melvind Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 I will be sure to do that once I get back to the West Coast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he snatched it up fast. I can't say as I blame him either. The mahogany is like a red mirror. Very beautiful example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just beautiful! Thanks Bruce. I saw it just after it was put out, took the time to go to my booth and count my money to see if I could pull it off, returned and bought it on the spot. It spent the rest of the show by the wall covered by a victrola blanket (thanks to Jerry Blais' mother from years ago) until I loaded it in the trailer. It's home now and just needs to get down the stairs. My neighbor will help me with that very soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valecnik Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 I think I saw it there covered with the blanket by the door. I just never peeked underneath! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterJive47 Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 He just posted a video of it for those who hadn't seen. Quite the gem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
