I need to ship a horn to China. Wife is going over there and wants to take it. Will take it on the plane but I need to break it down (it's actually 2 pieces with the end piece which is about 12" 'crimped' on to the main part of the horn) off so I can get it into a box that isn't oversized and get gouged $200 for sending it this way. Any suggestions without ruining it? Just got done refinishing it and a new paint job so want to see if anyone has a trick to get it off with no or minimal damage and be able to put it back on. THANKS!!

Hi!
First time posting and have been trying to research an Edison Home Phonograph we just bought. Works but will need a litle cosmetic help. Horn needs some loving. Just a good clean up to the whole thing. Just wondering when this might have been produced? We got 34 of the cylinders with it. Also, just for fun although how much it's worth doesn't really matter to us. We just think it's an awesome piece of history...how much does one that works and is slightly refurbished (which we will do...I've been a wood worker all my life and an artist...not going to refinish just clean and glue the base back together...horn is probably going to be repainted original colors) is worth? Thanks! I'm thinking we'll be asking lots more questions and if anyone is interested, we're looking for others to purchase! THANKS!! Marc and Rosie
P.S. Horn has Pat Aug 22 05 on it with a logo of TCoT on it in 2 places. Does the small opening of the horn go in the Reproducer or on the outside? We are also needing a crane for it as it didn't come with one. Is there a specific one that we need to get? Want it to be the right one.
