VINTAGE EDISON PHONOGRAPHS

We have a number of vintage Edison phonographs in perfect working order. These machines were made in the very early 1900’s and are powered by a spring. No electricity, just wind them up, push the one switch from off to on, lower the needle on the record, and sit back and enjoy! 

The most popular variety with collectors today plays a wax cylinder record and has a funnel shaped external brass horn. There are also slightly later varieties that play a 78 rpm disc record. These machines are extremely well built and durable and require virtually no maintenance. There is a leather belt that drives the mechanism and this may have to be replaced every 40 or 50 years! I have seen machines 90 years old with the original belt! 

Records are still available by the thousands. We’ll include four free records with each machine. Additional records are only $15 each. Call and we’ll send a picture of any machine you desire. They are a lot of fun! They make great conversation pieces. I have several in my home and they never fail to delight curious guests and a demonstration is always mandatory. 

We offer the Edison phonograph with four free records for $1250. Certain other models may be priced higher or lower. Call for details or fill out our contact form.

 

Every item we sell is guaranteed authentic forever. We issue a written certificate of authenticity with every item we sell.
