Antique Columbia Graphophone Dictaphone

Antique Dictaphone. Metal antique dictate machine from the early 1900's, in my opinion looks like it is in good condition. The glass on the end of the tube that you speak into is not broken. There is a plate on the front that reads ''The Dictaphone registered U.S. Patent office. Columbia Graphophone Company Sole Distributors. Model 7 New York Type A.'' I think it is missing the drive belt. On the back it has great graphics of a man at his desk and it reads ''Dictate to the Dictaphone'' on the other side the dictaphone reads ''Patented October 16, 1894, October 18, 1896, March 30, 1897, October 8, 1901, December 31, 1907, September 21, 1909, September 13, 1910, Other Patents Pending. It is on wheels that look like the original wheels. Measures approx. top to floor 34 inches. The dictaphone can be removed from the stand. The dictaphone itself measures approx. 11 x 12 1/2 x 6 inches. The stand itself measures approx. 24 tall and 16 inches at the wides portion. Shipping, Handling, and Insurance $50.
