There's never a server move/upgrade that goes without glitches, and Phono-L 
seemed to suffer from one this week. I noticed some wonkiness in the email 
server earlier this week, but just today had a chance to sit down and diagnose 
it. I think I've got it all sorted out now, so we should be good to go!

2010-02-05 Thread Douglas Houston
Since I was one of the recipients of your message, and also that I have
cars, I thought I'd share some impressions with you. You need to tell what
the phono collection consists of. This isn't the best time in history to
sell off any kind of collection, but if it's what you want to do, go ahead
with it. 

It's also not a good time for someone to sell collector cars, so it keeps
both parties on a level playing field. I don't know your location, but
there is a guy in Oakland county, Michigan, who had a '54 Cadillac for sale
a while back, and may still have it. My phone is (248) 627-4141, if you'd
like to call, evenings.

Hello everyone on Phono-L: 



I am a new subscriber to Phono-L and would like to introduce myself.  I live in 
Vermont and am primarily a collector of records (1920s hot dance  jazz, as 
well as film soundtrack and early radio discs) but I have a few machines and 
love listening to them. 



Victor Credenza story: I always took with a grain of salt any story I heard 
about how wonderful it was to listen to early electrical records on a Victor 
Credenza preferring to use my nice Numark turntable, a truncated 2.5 mil 
stylus, my Souvenir noise reduction unit, and nice, quiet amp.  I was quite 
vocal about this too whenever the subject of playing records and cylinders on 
original equipment came up for discussion.  But then I heard a scroll Victor 
Gems from Rio Rita played on a friend's Credenza , one that had been properly 
restored , and I couldn't believe the warmth and depth of the sound. I bought 
one and restored it and while I wouldn't play my best store stock records on 
it, I do have several crates of late '20s scroll Victors that listen to on the 
big machine.   



That leads me to a request.  I have acquired a second full-sized Credenza that 
is without its backboard and wonder if anyone on the list might have one 
available so I can complete its restoration.  If you do, please contact me 
privately at

have several crates of late '20s scroll Victors that listen to on the big 
machine.  



That leads me to a request.  I have acquired a second full-sized Credenza that 
is without its backboard and wonder if anyone on the list might have one 
available so I can complete its restoration.  If you do, please contact me 
privately at

Best regards to everyone and Happy New Year.

Hello everyone on Phono-L: 



I am a new subscriber to Phono-L and would like to introduce myself.  I live in 
Vermont and am primarily a collector of records (1920s hot dance  jazz, as 
well 
as film soundtrack and early radio discs) but I have a few machines and love 
listening to them. 



Victor Credenza story: I always took with a grain of salt any story I heard 
about how wonderful it was to listen to early electrical records on a Victor 
Credenza preferring to use my nice Numark turntable, a truncated 2.5 mil 
stylus, 
my Souvenir noise reduction unit, and nice, quiet amp.  I was quite vocal about 
this too whenever the subject of playing records and cylinders on original 
equipment came up for discussion.  But then I heard a scroll Victor Gems from 
Rio Rita played on a friend's Credenza , one that had been properly restored , 
and I couldn't believe the warmth and depth of the sound. I bought one and 
restored it and while I wouldn't play my best store stock records on it, I do 
have several crates of late '20s scroll Victors that listen to on the big 
machine.   



That leads me to a request.  I have acquired a second full-sized Credenza that 
is without its backboard and wonder if anyone on the list might have one

[Phono-L] hello all

2009-02-01 Thread zonophone2...@aol.com
here is a friend of mines comment on a new move by ebay
any one else care to comment
 
This is simply  the text (below, in blue) of a quick message I sent to 
eBay on their Contact  Us website option.  Earlier today I spent a half-hour 
on-line with an eBay  helper person, trying to get an answer to my question.  
It took Vickie  almost 30 minutes to verify that the problem could not be 
resolved.   
Now I am sharing this info with friends who use eBay.  I was  disappointed to 
learn that a useful feature has been eliminated.  When  watching or bidding 
on items, there were formerly several buttons from which to  choose, including 
delete from list or compare or add a note.  I used  the comment button 
to add my thoughts, like whether I was sniping the item; my  maximum potential 
bid; real name and past satisfsaction of/with the seller;  suggested value of 
a specific record in guide books; recent sale prices of a  similar item;  
whether I already own 1 or more examples; person or friend  who has been 
seeking 
this item; errors or omissions in the seller's  description; etc.  Just another 
unfortunate move by eBay.  I am not  surprised that their revenue and user 
satisfasction are both  declining.

Little Dancer
Just recently obtained a German Bing Little Dancer phonograph. I have 
searched the web for information, but found very little.Is there any 
information out there where I am not looking. One picture in the last 
Fabrizio-Paul book. The reproducer on this one seems wrong. It has a nickel 
plated cover where the rest of the phonograph is painted. Would like to see an 
original. Also, what would be the best way to clean the paint from smoke and 
dirt?
Thanks,

Hi Brian,
I do art restration for a living and use many different types of chemicals
to clean smoke and dirt from paint. I would start with Kotton Cleanser -but
do not use paper towels, rags or steel wool-use cotton balls. put some on a
cotton ball and use a circular motion. do not try to clean every bit on the
first pass. Do the entire item then wipe down with mineral spirts.Let dry
and repeat.
If this does not clean it up in the manner you are looking for let me know.

[Phono-L] Hello ..I'm a Newbie to the list ....

2006-12-24 Thread csp...@prexar.com
Hi all,
I'm a newbie to this list ... and a novice collector of vintage
phonographs...  Actually my interest in oldtime phonographs started in
1974
My interest currently is primarily Edison cylinder machines ... and I have a
few that are working, and a couple that need restoration.
My goal in restoration is to clean up, and rebuild so the machine runs 
plays properly.

First couple questions I have:  any reccomendations on cleaning
bedplates ... trying to remove old dust  oils, but not harm any existing
gold trim etc. 2nd... cleaning old parts, gears etc...is a 
parts washer neccessary ... what cleaning agents are reccomended?

Thanks for having me aboard,
Clint

Hi Clint,

Meguiar's Clear Coat Body Scrub is good for bedplates and gentle with the gold 
trim.  Mineral spirits is good for cleaning old grease off of the gears and the 
springs.  What Edison's do you have?
