    Definitely one to look for at rummage sales. Sometimes they price things high and sometimes the blow it. Estate sales too, because when they blow it they really blow it and something like this might get overlooked in a basement.

    Seller blunders are possible. I've bought some.

    This may be a buyer blunder, but I took a gamble and won the auction for $6. It is being shipped, so the actual cost is $150. It's due on Saturday. It's a small Edison phonograph of unknown type/condition/completeness, with a nice external horn and about 70+ cylinder records of unknown condition.

    Here's the entire text ...

    Doesn't work, needs to be cleaned to display,

    And here are the photos ...

    The dark area in the bin is the top of a phonograph.

    Buried treasure or what I would have paid locally? I'll soon see.

    It would be a keeper!
    What you think is a fan, is a seashell.
    I love that it's art, a lamp, and specifically for a phone.
