First introduced in 1903, the “New Style Columbia” model was celebrated for its enhanced sound quality, diminished noise, and robust motor. Columbia then improved upon the “AO” model, offering it as the second style of gramophone to its patrons, with updates to the motor frame and a new serpentine case design. Featuring a three-spring motor, it boasted the ability to play eight records with one full wind. This specific machine includes a unique partial shaving attachment. It boasts a magnificent oak finish that is flawless, matching the impeccable condition of the entire gramophone. The motor and internal mechanisms are equally remarkable. The gramophone has been thoroughly mechanically restored, encompassing the case, bedplate, and upper works, achieving an aesthetic that meets or exceeds its initial state. For those desiring a distinguished addition to their home or office, this gramophone stands as a superior selection. Guaranteed satisfaction is provided, along with a nickel-plated horn.
