Re: [Phono-L] Can anyone identify this Sonora?

[Stan Stanford]

The Elite is the 5th model down with the Supreme being No. 1.As Bob
said, wooden tone arms could be on several of the top models including
yours, but all except the Supreme, could have metal tone arms.   I have a
Supreme and it came with 2 wooden tone arms with different reproducers:  one
for lateral and the other for vertical cut records.   Yes, the complete tone
arm on my Supreme is easily removable.

Thanks, Stan.  I have a mahogany Sonora Elite, with a wooden tone arm.
Would that model have been a level (or two) below this one, then?

 Can anyone tell me which model of Sonora phonograph this is? It looks 
 to be one of their higher-end bombe machines, but I've always had 
 trouble identifying particular Sonora models. If it is a higher-end 
 machine, should I be surprised that it doesn't have a wooden tone arm? 
 (Do those wooden tone arms really sound better, for that matter?) And 
 am I the only one who's never seen a Sonora in oak before? It seems to 
 me every one I've ever seen has been mahogany. Thoughts?Oh, and if 
 anyone has one of these and would like to share photos of it, I'd 
 appreciate it; I'm especially curious about what it's supposed to look
like with the doors open.

Subject: [Phono-L] Why I never made it to Union

Folks,

After weeks of preparation, time and expense I drove 4 ½ hours to
Elgin, IL and checked into the Hampton Inn on Thursday evening.  I was
looking forward to spending Friday, Saturday and Sunday with friends at the
world’s largest antique phonograph show hosted at Donley’s Wild West Town in
Union, IL.  This was my best and last face-to-face opportunity to convince
other talented individuals to replace me as President of the International
Antique Phonograph Society and as Editor of our magazine In The Groove.

About mid-way during my drive, I started feeling a little feverish
and my stomach developed an ache, not really a pain.  I was blaming it on a
possible bad raison from the Trail Mix dried fruit I enjoyed the night
before.  I checked into the Elgin, IL Hampton Inn, and carried in my
suitcase and some of the equipment I brought along for the Phonovention
presentations.  I started feeling worse, so I called it a night and went to
bed at 8:00 p.m.  At 9:30 or so, I knew there was something a dose of
Pepto-Bismol just would not cure.  I got up and dressed, but I could not
stand up straight.  As I walked the hallway from my hotel room to the front
desk to ask for directions to the nearest hospital, knowing full well that
I’d never be able to drive there myself, I was met by a small group of
fellow antique phonograph collectors who were headed to their rooms, and one
person who was at that time a complete stranger to me, Bob Barnett, offered
to drive me in his car to the hospital emergency room.  He offered to stay
with me until I was either dismissed or admitted - this was at 10:00 at
night.  I gave Bob, my new found friend, the keys to my truck and asked him
to give them to the Hampton Inn’s front desk.  I had to make some quick
arrangements with HAPS President, Rich Buck, to empty my truck of all of the
items I had prepared and brought with me for our trade show booth so it
could be set up and ready for the event at 8:00 a.m. the following morning.
Rich, John Hauger, Joan Rolfs and I am sure many others pitched in and
completed what needed to be done in my absence.

The CAT scan and blood tests proved that it was a ruptured,
gangrenous appendix.  I had the emergency surgery at 9:00 Friday morning as
Union was getting underway.  I was released from Sherman Hospital late
Monday afternoon.

To put it mildly, I was very disappointed to miss Union and
Phonovention 2012.  Rich Buck dropped by the hospital with a card prepared
by Joan Rolfs and signed by several attendees and friends.  He informed me
that Phonovention was very successful and that Patrick Feaster’s
presentation room was packed to capacity.

Now that I am home, I am receiving cards in the mail and E-Mails
from well-wishers with questions on what occurred, so I thought it best to
let everyone know I am doing great and getting ready to start compiling the
August / September Issue of In The Groove.

Convalescingly Yours,

Tim McCormick

Re: [Phono-L] union

I'm at Union and am enjoying the Show very much as usual.   Everyone seemed 
to be treated fairly this year as far as I know.   I didn't go to the 
pre-show but heard it was not well attended.   I do admit missing some of 
the parking lot action at Union the day before the Show, but when people 
started moving the parking lot action earlier and earlier until some were 
arriving 3 or more days before the Show it was unmanageable.


I like the Union Show and plan to keep coming.   For me it's as much about 
seeing and greeting old friends as it is about buying and selling.   I feel 
blessed to know and be around such wonderful people from all over the world.

I am impressed with the prices and the horn is beautiful, you almost never 
see one that nice as the paint flaked off the inside and out.

It's a reproducer for an Edison Diamond Disc phonograph.I assume the 
stylus is there, but the picture
is not clear enough to tell for sure.so it may not be.

[Phono-L] No Raps on MAPS, But Seek Chaps for CAPS

[stan stanford]

Thanks, George for your comments about  CAPS.   I have been amazed at the 
quality of the CAPS Journal,  The Sound Box.   The articles by you, Tim, 
Rene and the others are outstanding.   I agree, this is the oustanding 
journal in the hobby.   The Journal alone is worth the membership price. 
The CAPS organization has made a gigantic leap in quality in all respects 
over the past few years.All of those seriously interested in the hobby 
should be a member of both MAPS and CAPS.

 Jerry,

 Thanks for your kind words about my new position in CAPS. There's no doubt 
 that they wanted me simply for eye-candy. But it's worth noting that CAPS 
 is not just for California collectors - any more than MAPS is solely for 
 those living in Michigan. I've been a member of both organizations for 
 many years, and agree that every serious collector should be a member of 
 both. What puzzles me is the number of MAPS members who don't belong to 
 CAPS as well. The CAPS quarterly journal, The Sound Box, is the best - I 
 repeat - THE BEST publication on antique phonographs and related items. 
 It's a large-format magazine (8 1/2 x 11) packed with photos and 
 illustrations. Members just received their March issue last week, and - as 
 in every issue - there are a number of substantive articles for the 
 collector who wants to learn more about our hobby. The eight (yes, EIGHT) 
 articles in the current issue cover these topics:1) A discussion of the 
 Columbia Period Grafonolas, who made the cabinets
 , and illustrations of 18 different models! 2) An article and 4 photos of 
 an unusual Exposicion gramophone by Larry Karp. Ever seen one of these? 
 3) Allen Koenigsberg wrote about a long-forgotten 1905 advertising 
 campaign using a giant balloon tethered to a building in New York City to 
 promote Victor Talking Machines (w/5 illustrations). A sudden windstorm 
 brought near-tragedy and one man barely escaped with his life! 4) Thomas 
 Rhodes (Mr.Orthophonic) writes about Joseph Maxfield's sound box - no, 
 not the Orthophonic - the one BEFORE that!? 5) So we thought we knew about 
 EVERY recording of Thomas Edison's voice? How about a 1917 Blue Amberol 
 (yep - it predates Let Us Not Forget) containing Edison himself 
 extolling the new Electrip Ediphone? Plus other related artifacts shown in 
 four photos. 6) Everyone knows that cylinder records are vertically 
 recorded, but if you read The Sound Box, you're also aware of two types 
 of LATERALLY RECORDED cylinder records! 5 photos acc
 ompany this article. 7) Charles Marowitz writes an article in each issue 
 on early recording stars, and I think he does an excellent job every time. 
 This issue, he covered Annette Hanshaw (including 3 illustrations), and 
 she seemed like such a babe in print that I was inspired to dig out a 
 couple of her records to see what she sounded like. 8) When we think 
 catalog sales, we think of Sears - don't we? Well, Montgomery-Ward put 
 Sears to shame in the 1899-1902 period with the wonderful phonographs it 
 sold, such as Edison Polyphones, Berliner  Johnson Gramophones, the 
 Thornward, and others. Nine illustrations from actual catalogs are 
 included in this article. And that's all in just ONE issue of The Sound 
 Box!? Rene Rondeau is the Editor, and does a magnificent job of creating 
 a beautiful, eye-catching journal with full-color covers. There are 36 
 illustrations in this issue, which doesn't include the 5 pages of 
 advertisements!

 CAPS maintains a website at www.ca-phono.org. I encourage everyone who's 
 not a member to do themselves a favor and check it out. Sorry for the long 
 essay, but this is really too good to miss!

 Best to all,

Any experiences or comments on bidder identification protection on

auctions, artificially raising the price? I actually look for bidders
whom I have bid against in the past. This lends towards legitimacy, but
also confirms what I am bidding on, others that collect the same thing
are also interested.

Has anyone bid, or won anything with these bidder identification
protected auctions? The seller of the Zonophone-A is doing that with
that particular auction.

I watch the Antique Road Show quite often.Some of the experts seem 
quite well informed and do special research for individual items.   The 
phono guy obviously had done no research.   He had little understanding of 
the unusual Herzog cabinet which was the valuable piece.   The presentation 
certainly wouldn't have inspired a novice collector.   SIGH.

 That was something of a let down!  The phonograph shown was an Edison

 Model D with an S reproducer in an alligatored finish oak Herzog  #740
 Cylophone cabinet.  The unrebuilt reproducer was set to  the wrong 
 stylii so the
 reproduction of sound was terrible.  The person  doing the description 
 and
 evaluation seemed less knowledgeable than one could  hope for.  He had no 
 idea if
 the cabinet was sold by Edison or an  aftermarket item.  One wonders what

[Phono-L] RE: Zonophone

[Stan Stanford]

It looks like a Zonophone A, one of the earliest Zonophones.   It's an 
attractive machine with 2 glass sides.   It looks all original including the 
reproducer.   It was the highest priced Zonophone at the time.   It does 
look a little rusty, so I'm surprised it's going for that much.   I would 
have thought about $5,000.Obviously I'm wrong.   The horn looks unusual. 
Is it paper mache? I have an all original Zonophone A, but is has an all 
brass horn.

[Phono-L] Phonographs as an Investment

[Stan Stanford]

I think very desirable machines, especially rare machines, have continued to 
increase in value.   More common machines including common horn machines 
(e.g., Edison standards, homes, triumphs; Victor I-III) have not increased 
much in the past few years.In fact some prices have even softened. 
Entry level machines (e.g., Amberola 30,  Victrolas:  VV-IV; VV-VI) have not 
increased since I started collecting about 15 years ago.

A close friend who is an advanced collector is considering selling off the
 bulk of a beautiful  rare collection of high-end upright and outside horn
 machines. Although he plans to keep a few favorites, he thinks the time 
 has
 come to cash out of the hobby.

 I have been collecting for just 5 years. For those of you who have many 
 more
 years into the hobby, personal emotions aside -- how do you feel than
 antique phonos have stood the test of time purely as an investment? Are we
 at a high time or low time right now? Any predictions for the next 5 or 10
 years?

 Thats four hundred.
   Its the last time I'm going. Everything is grossly
 overpriced and its just not worth it anymore. I heard
 the word 'Ebay' echoing around the place everywhere I
 turned. A machine that would have had a price of 450
 on it last year, was 700 this year. Forget it.
