The Columbia Graphophone (Phonograph), Type B “commonly known as the ‘Eagle,’ was first introduced in September 1897 as an affordable yet robust machine for the mass market. Priced at $10 for the basic model or $12 with a wooden base and curved lid, the Eagle quickly became popular among consumers. The name “Eagle” refers to the common nickname for a $10 gold coin of the era, which was also the price of the machine. It was manufactured until 1907 and served as the sole sales agent for the American Graphophone Company based in New York. The machine features an oak case, often with a domed lid, and utilizes a skeletonized movement. The apparatus is a cylinder phonograph, designed to play wax records using a brass or black-painted metal horn. Appears to be complete and comes with nine record rolls. Approx. 18"l x 18"w x 16"h
