Hi Mark and "Exxzxxe", is the box already sold, and is "Exxzxxe" the new owner? If so, feel free to post us some videos of your collection, "Exxzxxe". We wait for them.
@JochenKopf Box hasn't been sold yet, exxzxxe never responded when I asked him to make an offer. He simply said he was going to the Bahamas or something and would get with me when he returned...never happened.
From the sound of the discs, the dampers, combs and resonators appear sound. Has there been any repair to the comb? How many discs do you have? I would like to get a list of titles. I am a collector who has 34 machines. One of the machines I am buying this year is an Olympia upright playing 28 inch discs.
@exxzxxe We have 56 discs (15" I believe) a stand, the box has all original parts(besides the main spring)and has been in the family since its manufacture in 1896(we have a receipt somewhere from the jewelry store where it was purchased before 1900) and we have pictures of the original owner. It plays wonderfully, and I've listened to almost every disc.

@exxzxxe It sure is. We have a couple of offers on the table, but nothing close to what we want for it. Send us an offer if you're interested!
