It's lots of fun reviving a 70 year old machine and seeing it work!

I really like the simplicity of that player, I hope you have some good 78s for it! 78 collecting is a bizzare world, with 95% junk and a few good ones, with very few sellers who know what they are doing.
I love this John Vassos design classic RCA phono attachment. Streamliner era deco styling at it's best. I also love your Columbia LP attachment a great deal, a very nice piece of history. I love seeing vintage phonos playing again. I love these two the same way I love my new to me 1966 Fisher Custom Electra VIII and the Dual 1010 with Pickering V 15F cartridge and the 3 way speakers which is my living room casual fun system.
