[kuglarb via Phono-L]

Hi all.  I am looking for a nice original horn for a small Victor E rear mount 
phonograph.  One with a nice original decal preferred.  Also, if anyone has an 
original crank for this machine for sale, please let me know.  Much 
appreciation.Brantley KuglarSouth CarolinaSent from my Galaxy Tab® E

You need to find a person who makes models and regularly applies decals if you 
get any.   Ogden chrome for nickel plating.  John tells me they do excellent 
work a reasonable prices.   Vicsonia is one of the adapters you can play DD 
records on Victor phonographs.  The stylus is sapphire which wears and I have 
never seen a good one.  Either broken or worn.  Diamonds are expensive these 
days.  I have an adapter so a diamond will fit for the Vicsonia, but I will not 
have any diamonds unless I order more.   Duo-Vox had diamond styli.  Made by 
Bush and Lane. The third type I have seen did not have a name, the box it came 
in said Victor, it was held on by a thumbscrew.

[Phono-L] Arthur Fields Anthology

[Ron L'Herault via Phono-L]

Seeing the post about decals on phono-L reminded me that I wanted to post to
both that list and phonolist about a new CD I received recently.  It's an
Arthur Fields Anthology on Archeophone.   If you have more than a few 78s or
DDs, you probably have one or more with a Fields vocal.I know I have a
lot of them.  Still, the Anthology had some tunes I was not familiar with.
The remastering is quite good and Ryan Barna's liner notes are wonderful.
If you've ever interacted with Ryan, I think you'll agree that he is a
serious, through collector and researcher who knows how to put great liner
notes together into a coherent, factual and enjoyable narrative.This CD
is a  great addition to my library!
