Phonoland

Hi, I am a newbie and looking for more information on this Columbia Grafonola with stand.
The plate reads No. A44479 Am graphophone Co. -- Bridgeport, Conn

Which model is it, year and approximate worth in working condition?
Any information or links would be great.

Thanks

I blew up the top one, and lightened it. I could see that the Grafonola is photographed from the back side, and that it has round corner columns.



That, along with the layout of the motor board leads me to believe that it's a Model 50 (Page 132, "Columbia Phonograph Companion, Vol. II" by Robert Baumbach), which was introduced in 1915.

The cabinet dimensions are:
Height: 13 3/8 inches
Width: 18 1/8 inches
Depth: 21 1/2 inches

Here's a video of the model 50, so you can compare -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zV8zZmJiCOY (Obviously, this one has a restored reproducer.)

Prices vary, depending on overall condition. You might want to check completed auctions on eBay for similar items.
