found in an antique store today

[shadow67]

I found this in an antique store today. It is missing the transmitter as well as the receiver and the crank won't budge if you try to turn it. No markings that I could find. It had $95 price on it. Any idea on what it is or what it's worth?

You could do better.Note the shelf is a replacement

I agree about the shelf and you can do better some other time. About the mag, they dry out. Use give them a shot of WD, in the oil points and on the coil too. This should free it up.

Judging from the bend in the magneto crank I assume that it suffered some kind of abuse that may have bent the shaft and prevented it from turning.  I would stay away from this unless you need a coffin for your cat.

A coffin for your cat!!! Hahahaha!!  Oh man I laughed way too hard at that.

[retromodder]

it would be a good deal, for around 40 bucks.

Junk, the only thing that has value is the mag and the arm so it is parts. 20 for the mag if it works 10 for the crank maybe 10 for the arm, plus ebay and paypal fees Resist the urge it is not worth it. There are more collections for sale right now of mint wall phones and no buyers,when  it comes to wood its over unless super rare.
