I've had a few of the 1946-47 Philco consoles with that changer pass through here, and the changers themselves were almost always still working; it was that "dynamic" cartridge that was always a problem as they were designed for a particular stylus. People would invariably stick a steel needle in place of the stylus, enlarging the hole the stylus fits in and ruining the cartridge. The damage is not repairable.
