Hi The prices were pretty darn good this year. There were some things that were high, but they were quality pieces. There was an upright Columbia grafonola, the type with the lion's heads that sometimes came with a Regina music box in it (this was the phonograph only) that was priced at $4800. There was a very nice mahogany Opera priced at $7200. There was a maroon Gem with alf the paint gone from the gear cover, but with a nice original horn that went for $550, and an oak Amberola 75 for $500 I think it was. Prices have been soft for a few years now, and as one dealer said it is a "buy high sell low" market anymore!
