Item Description: Translate description
This is 1 of only 3 known examples! This rare and unusual machine in its elaborate dark Flemish oak cabinet has its original finish and decal. Is in overall good condition with some finish wear on the top motor board as well as several open corners near the base. The boards on the bottom of the cabinet have shrinkage cracks and are a bit loose and in otherwise good condition. Has a universal talking machine marked concert reproducer. The reproducer, tone arm. horn cradle, and lower support bracket all have their original nickel plating in average condition with the usual wear. The unusual cast iron bedplate has its original speed control and brake all have their original nickel plating that is well worn in fair condition. The cast iron bedplate bears the word Zonophone as well as Cyrillic writing which verifies that it is most likely of European origin. Has its original winding crank and the motor winds and runs. Has its original 16" long black and brass horn with a 8-3/4" diameter brass bell. The horn body has its original black paint and elbow. The bell, body, and elbow are all in good original condition with a few minor scrapes and dings here and there as well as some spots on the bell, The Zonophone Eclipse is a machine about which little is known. The cabinet and works suggest it was connected with models sold by the International Zonophone Company in Europe circa 1905. Cabinet measures 11-1/4" X 11-1/4" X 6-1/2" H. A good honest example of a hard to find machine. Also, the backside of the trifold Zonophone bard dance advertisement seen in Lot #1134A suggests American origin for the Eclipse, "EV Bryant, Syracure N.Y. Records and Phonographs".
