Where is best place to find any parts for you Edison Diamond Disc Phonographs. Over internet or in phone book? I know eBay sell a lot of Edison other there, but I'm want to know do I have a choice to go around them? As know it big market out there. It just trying find them is a problem. ;D

what would for a book like this book by George Frow that shows all the models?
I see price range from $80.00 to $300 on eBay. How much would you you pay for such a book?

He call himself the onemansjunkizanotherstreasure, who I brought from. In picture from what could see it didn't appear to look bent at all. got to this website see for yourself: cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120471980130&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:ITYou could be right on this perhaps was damage in UPS. But crunched appear to be done inside box no evident of showing it on out side of box. This I can't rule out. But again the person who sent this to me, didn't warp good, or protect it well in shipping where look like of weight from the base of this Edison, could had put too much strain on horn, because he didn't use thick sty foam to protect it with, during the shipment process. But can make UPS accountable for this? wasn’t insure. Like you said it appear to look like that finish is lacquered gold plate, not true brass sold, because some spot look rusty. As I can see it already is denting where it curve at , could been done from the top of plate rubbing against horn and box weight too. Another question I have here, this horn is a 15 “, much larger then 13” use in smaller Edison . I was reading that the 15” were use in Chippendale Edison, where any other model that had 15” horn? I’m new at this. Thank Bob P.S. I have more picture of it to show better view of where dent is at. would like send to picture to you? need email. Thank

I have a lot of these old edison records, that I brought from eBay, and many of them have missing their Label. I was thinking of making a few of them, so I, know what song they are. I know someone will be able tell they were copy made but, let put in so many word, if you were a record , kept in bad environment, being neglect, all those years, and paper don't last on anything too long. What can do?

Hi, I just brought this Edison phonograph part off of eBay. In picture didn’t see any damage to the Elbow that hold the horn and the reproducer disc which is brass. Which is brass I think. Since it is bent badly, at that the 90 degree angle, can I bend back to where should be so can play on disc record? By using low heat from a propane heather gun, with out causing damage to metal part of horn that is connect to bass part? To bend back to where should be at? see picture of this and let me know, what would be best interest, what to do here? Thank Bob Attachments:
