[Phono-L] Phonograph Tokens for Sale

2019-01-06 Thread Shawn ORourke via Phono-L
Its time once again to thin out some of my Coin-operated tokens. The ones
for sale today are all nickel sized. Interestingly enough, finding nickel
sized phonograph tokens is harder than finding penny tokens.
Non-intuitively, nickel play machines came before penny play machines at
the turn of the century. Then as the teens came, nickel play became more
the norm.

If you have a coin operated phonograph, it is awesome to have one or more
tokens to display with your machine.


   - The first grouping is stamps "BC" with "For one play on Phonograph"
   These are super cool and unusual to have "phonograph" stamped on them. I
   have 14 of them available. Price each is $12.00 Volume discount if you want
   them all.
   - The second grouping is from Queen city novelty company. Novelty
   companies and arcades housed phonographs and other coin operated machines
   for the public to enjoy. I have 8 of these tokens. Priced and sold only as
   a group at $45.00
   - The third and final group are various Arcade and Novelty company
   tokens. These are priced at $8.00 each.


Pictures on request.  Shipping is additional.

Thank you

Shawn

[Phono-L] FOR SALE - NEAR MINT VICTOR III WITH OAK HORN

2017-08-22 Thread Shawn ORourke via Phono-L
For sale today is a machine I have owned for quite some time. It is the
nicest Victor III I have ever seen, which is why I have kept it. It’s time
to move it on.

The machine is absolutely stunning. Everything, with the exception of the
gaskets in the rebuilt reproducer, is original. The finish is stunning. The
pen striping is as near to perfect as you can find. Wonderful original
felt. Awesome #20 smooth oak Victor horn. It has an excellent dealer tag on
the front as well. It’s a strong player and sounds absolutely wonderful.
Not sure what else I can say, but if you have questions, I will be glad to
answer them, take more pictures.

A reprinted Victor III Instruction manual is included with the machine.

If you are looking for the best, this Victor III may be for you.

The price is $2,500. Shipping is additional.

I can deliver to Stanton's in the fall, and possibly the Wayne Show. No
PayPal, but checks are fine.

I have pictures that I can share with those who have serious interest.

Please contact me with interest or questions directly, additional pictures
at mshawnorou...@gmail.com

Thank you



Shawn

[Phono-L] FOR SALE STANDARD SPEAKER

2017-05-01 Thread Shawn ORourke via Phono-L
*For sale today is a hard to find, some may say rare, Edison Standard
Speaker. *



*This Standard Speaker is in nice, original condition. It has an original
french glass diaphragm and a new stylus. The cutter looks whitish, and I
have not tried it. The nickel on the Standard Speaker is stunning. It
presents exceedingly well overall and is one of the nicer ones that I have
ever seen. *



*Standard Speakers were offered starting in 1889 until 1902 (according to
Frow). What makes them special is that they had both the playback and
recording stylus on the same needle bar. An adjustment to the angle is all
that it takes to change from play to record. While it was much easier to
use than having a separate reproducer and recorder, the Automatic
reproducer functioned better for sound reproduction. Therefore the Standard
Speaker is not often found today. *



*This would be an awesome opportunity to dress up one of your early Edison
machines with a hard to find reproducer. They don't come around that often.
One did just sell on EBAY, but that was one of the first ones I've seen
sell in a very long time. If you are interested, don't wait. This early
stuff is not that easy to find. *



*The price is $775.00, Firm. Pictures available upon request. Postage and
insurance is additional to where you live. No PayPal, but checks are fine.
I can deliver to Stanton's Auction or Union with payment. *



*Please email me with interest at mshawnorou...@gmail.com

[Phono-L] For Sale - Columbia AP

2017-02-01 Thread Shawn ORourke via Phono-L
I have a Columbia AP for sale.  This is an exceptionally hard machine to
find. It was given away as a premium by Columbia, and few seem to have been
made as very few are found today.  I know seen less than 10 of these in 30
plus years of collecting.   The one I offer is completely original and in
very nice condition.  It plays well.

*Listening Tube Wires - ONLY THREE LEFT - $40.00*

Years ago, I found two original external listening tube support wires. They
were so useful, making those floppy listening tubes highly functional, that
I reproduced a batch of them, some to keep and some to sell to other
friends. They are very elegant and cool looking, exactly as the original,
nickel plated and highly functional.

*All Reprinted Paper - 20% off*

I am excited to announce my first ever, and possibly only, paper sale. All
paper is 20% OFF. That means if it is $5.00 in the attached brochure, then
it is $4.00 in this sale. This sale goes from now until the end of
February. Then its back to regular pricing.
Please email me directly for a brochure of over 50 reprinted catalogs
currently available.

*Very Early Cylinder Holder - $250*

A super early cylinder holder for cylinder records.  This is wood,
rectangular, with 6 pegs to hold the cylinders.  I have a picture available

[Phono-L] Listening Tube Wires For Sale - Again!

2017-01-01 Thread Shawn ORourke via Phono-L
Years ago, I found two original external listening tube support wires. They
were so useful, making those floppy listening tubes highly functional, that
I made a run of them, some to keep and some to sell to other friends. They
were not easy to form. I vowed at the time never to make another run. About
a year ago, I went back on that statement and I made another run. Even
thought they sold out quickly, that time, I said "never again." I guess you
never say "never" or "never again."

Available once more I have made a limited production run of these listening
tube wires. The reproductions are exactly as the original, nickel plated
and highly functional.

These would be correct for any early set of listing tubes without wire
supports.  Pictures of the reproduction wire, and a scan of an original ad
showing the wire are available upon request.

The price is $40.00.  Please contact me directly at my email with interest.

Thank you

[Phono-L] For Sale - Early Victor I

2015-12-28 Thread Shawn ORourke via Phono-L
I have a very nice playing and looking Victor I (One) available. This is
the earlier model with the small case and beveled turntable. It plays
through a record really well. It is all original. The only real objection
to the machine is that someone messed with the elbow in the past, causing
denting on the sides. It has nice original finish, respectable
pen-striping, a nicely rebuilt and playing Exhibition reproducer and the
early small brass bell horn.

If you are looking for a nice Victor One (its not perfect, but very nice),
here is your opportunity get one! I can share several pictures of the
machine directly with those who have interest.

This will be packed carefully for shipping.

The price is $775.00 plus shipping to you. No PayPal, but checks are fine.

Folks,

Once again, through the generosity of a fellow collector making his
original catalogs available, I am able to offer reprints of three very rare
Salter record cabinet catalogs. Each of these three have wonderful pictures
and descriptions of Salter manufactured record cabinets. I must say, by
reading these catalogs, I discovered new cabinets I never knew of
previously. I also discovered that Salter actually made some of the
cabinets that I was aware of, but did not know the manufacturer. Today,
there are three being offered:


   - Highest Quality Columbia Cabinets - Salter Manufacturing Company - 16
   pages - *$10.00*
   - Talking Machine Record Cabinets (disk and cylinder) - Salter
   Manufacturing Company - 24 pages - *$15.00 *
   - Record Cabinets - Salter Manufacturing Company (cylinder and disk) -
   40 pages - *$20.00*


These are wonderful reprints made directly from the original catalogs. They
are reprinted on paper that is consistent with the originals. They present
well, and contain wonderful information for the collector.

No PayPal on these, but checks are fine. Shipping additional.

Please contact mshawnorou...@gmail.com with interest.

[Phono-L] Replacement Blue Amberol Record Reamer Tape - Two Sets

2015-12-04 Thread Shawn ORourke via Phono-L
Has your sand paper fallen off, worn out, or gotten irreparably clogged on
your Blue Amberol record reamer? I have the solution. For sale are 6 strips
(two complete sets) of replacement record reamer sand paper.



This sand paper has the correct grip to stick very well to your reamer and
is the right grit to correctly ream your records. Easy to apply, it is a
peal-and-stick product. It comes in one inch wide, 5 ½ inch long pre-cut
strips. All you need to do is remove your old sandpaper, clean your record
reamer very well from old residue (steel wool and a clean rag seem to work
great), and peal and stick the strips on. It is as simple as that!



The price for two complete sets (6 strips) is $5.75 which includes shipping
in the US!



No Paypal, but checks are fine. Please contact mshawnorou...@gmail.com with
interest.
