Gold! The store room.
Silver! The shop
Welcome
New Page! I have added a new page to the main navigation which I hope will grow with time. On it will be machines which are beyond economic paid restoration by me but which may appeal to collectors with light engineering or craft skills. They will all be genuine originals which have had a hard life, rather than fakes and 'basket cases'!
Unbelievably. within 48 hours of the new page starting all the machines offered have been spoken for! More will be added when I have the time...
I have been trading in vintage gramophones and phonographs for thirty five years, in various locations in South London. I am now based at my home in Surrey; the postal address is shown on the 'contact' page.
I always hold a varied stock of machines which I guarantee historically and mechanically wherever possible. Most (but not all) can be seen in the 'Gramophones for Sale' and 'Phonographs for Sale' sections. Turnover can be fast and often machines 'come and go' without announcement. If you have any special wants just let me know and I will gladly tell you if I locate them. There is no obligation on you whatsoever to take me up on what I find!
Having overflowed my home and storage garage I have recently taken a small shop close to Hampton Court station, particularly to store the cabinet machines which have been cluttering my home in recent months.
The shop is slowly coming together. For the moment it is largely acting as a store but I have entertained my first visitors there!
