Meteor Phonographer "Talking Machine"

[okashlxy]

My grandmother had a Meteor Phonographer "Talking Machine". I would love to know more about it. I am buying my first home and want to have it as a piece for my living room. When moving one time the top got broke off (movers made the mistake of not securing the lid properly....) still have most of the pieces, but needs to be redone. I'm located in Florida, is there any experts in Florida?

The pictures attached are old pictures, plus one i found online that resembles the one i have. Its wrapped and stored so i cant get a good picture of it at the moment.

Meteor is considered an interesting off-brand in the hobby. Their phonograph brand was a subsidiary of the Meteor motor Car Company known for making hearses and ambulances.   The pictures you have of your grandmothers' model doesn't have carvings like the one you found on WorthPoint, making me think it's a lower end model either the 75 or 90. It was made likely between 1917-1922, sadly no serial number records survive on most off-brand to get an exact year. 

There are quite a few members from Florida and I'm sure someone is willing to help.
