EXTREMLY RARE COLUMBIA FACTORY TRANSITION FROM A TO AT PHONOGRAPH/GRAPHOPHONE

Description

This rare Columbia AT phonograph has a very low serial number 205285.The serial number range is 201260 to303568 for all AT's according to the Columbia Phonograph Companion Volume 1,by Howard Hazelcorn.Only a few of these low serial number machines have been found in A cases.I started acquiring phonographs in 1971 and have come across a total of three.  At first glance the phonograph appears to be an "A" but one look at the motor & ID plate you realize it is an "AT".This machine has been cleaned & lubricated;NO RESTORATION OTHER THAN THE 4 RUBBER FEET & LEATHER BELT.The appearance of this machine is more than acceptable for an unrestored machine.This machine plays loud and clear.Again this phonograph is ALL ORIGINAL but for the feet & belt.No horn is being supplied as there many to choose from on Ebay.The reproducer is the original upgraded #7.Please ask any questions before buying.Postal insurance is required at buyers expense & will be added to buyers invoice,so wait for my invoice.If you forget to wait I will issue a seperate invoice for postal insurance.
