The Columbia Graphonola Phonograph
This Columbia Phonograph is called a Graphonola because of its internal horn and is also known as the “Favorite”. Sales of this Phonograph started in 1911 and went through the early 1920′s. The Graphonola came with a triple spring motor and a 12 inch turntable. The Favorite sold for $50.00 when new (without matching record cabinet). The volume is controled by turning the knob which opens and closes the louver doors in the front. The phonograph sits on top of the original record cabinet that was available with the Graphonola. The cabinet has a locking door that opens to reveals the record storage. The Phonogragh and cabinet are two seperate pieces, and were sold as a matched set for an additional charge.
