GAUMONT-LUMIERE. - Lot 75

Mr B.'s collection

The HiFi and other "talking machines" presented here are mostly in collector's condition, unmodified except for old repairs, in beautiful original condition, used occasionally over the last twenty years except for the mention "untested".

The TSFs offered here have been hunted down at length since the 80s, and selected for their technical and/or aesthetic interest, with the aim not of making them work at any price, but rather of preserving and passing them on in the best possible original condition, i.e., for example, by preferring to keep a tired but original loudspeaker cloth, as it is generally irreplaceable in identical condition. The majority are in collector's condition, i.e. complete with tubes, unmodified except for old repairs, either in beautiful original condition, or restored to period finishes, techniques, materials and components. Missing items, accidents, damage or "attic condition" are reported on a case-by-case basis. Please insert description...
