1906 Edison Model B Triumph Cylinder Phonograph w/shaver For Sale

1906 Edison Model B Triumph Cylinder Phonograph w/shaver for re-recording brown wax cylinders. Here are the details:
The Edison Spring Motor Phonograph (Class SM) later to be called the Edison Triumph, was first introduced in 1902 as the Model A. The Model A Triumph was a boxy looking machine with a banner transfer reading \"Edison Triumph Phonograph\" on the front of the cabinet. A few years later, Mr. Edison streamlined the cabinet design with the introduction of the Model B with curved edges and gentile features, and eliminated the banner transfer in favor of a simple \"Edison\" transfer put onto the cabinet.
Mr. Edison retained the shaving devise from the Model A and put it on the Model B, but quickly began to realize that giving the public the opportunity to \"re-record\" their home made recordings was a bad idea for business.
Why?
Because Edison, like Eldridge Johnson from Victor and others, realized that the real money to be made was not in manufacturing the machines, but rather the sale of recordings. A person would typically buy only one Talking Machine, but in time, purchased hundreds of recordings in the years to follow which neither of them imagined in the early years of talking Machines.
This machine is in excellent condition, particularly the pinstriping on the motor board. Very little wear at all. The black lacquer shines like the sun! The nickel plating on the mandrel, and all other parts, is bright and crisp..
The model C reproducer plays very well. The belt has been replaced, and the gears on the 3 spring motor cleaned of old grease. The cabinet shows no dings nor scratches of any consequence, which isn\'t bad for something that\'s 124 years old! The horn is a reproduction; crank is original.
Cabinet dimensions are: 17.5\" long; 7\" tall, and 12.5\" wide.Thanks for viewing!!
