    I've read a lot about old phonographs,

    looked at quite a number of them in person,

    and replaced the motor springs in one of them,

    but that's a brand I've never seen or heard of.

    As with any "collectable", the value is whatever someone will pay for it.

    Since it's an oddball, it's probably much less desirable

    than a Victor, Columbia, or Brunswick,

    to name a few of the most common makes.

    One way to do some research is to find an antique-radio swap near you

    and ask other attendees about the item.

    [There is a considerable overlap between collectors of old radios

    and collectors of old phonographs.]

    Otherwise, there are phonograph collectors all over the world.

    An online search for them will turn up a lot more results

    than a search for the exact item you have.
