Default Re: Cossor Melody maker about 1930?

Hi Peter, If you are after one they often come up on the auction site for between £20 and £50, as John says, they work well and are easy to fix. If you get one I have the kit builders details. This was originally a big fold out sheet that winds up being about 12 A4 pages.
I think they were only sold as kits, but someone else on the forum may have heard of them being sold assembled.
There were several different versions over the years from 1928 to 1932 as well as mains and battery types.
The Melody Maker name was used on Cossor sets up to the 50's.

There was also the GEC "Music Magnet" which was a competitive product also in kit form
