Info needed on 1930 Concert Grand
#2

Hi

Are you lucky enough to own a Concert Grand? If so...congratulations! That is, in my opinion, one of Philco's finest pieces of furniture.

The phonograph mechanism is a single-play 78 rpm phonograph, and is the same as used in the smaller Model 296 radio-phono.

I think I have a complete mechanism here, but the shipping would be a killer (heavy).

I seem to recall that a Model G speaker was used in this model, as well as most of the 1930 Philco consoles (the exceptions being the battery and DC models, and the 20 Baby Grand Console). It's either a G or H; I think the H was used in 1931 models? Not positive right now. I can't remember every detail. Icon_smile
