[Phono-L] Re: Edison Phono on Antique Road Show this week

[funk]

The Road Show has some of the best appraisers in the world in the the more
high profile areas: furniture, painting, jewelry, militaria, american
pottery, toys & dolls.  With respect to music, they have quite good
appraisers of musical instruments (violins and guitars).  But, let's face
it, wind-up phonographs and related records/accessories has a relatively
narrow collecting base.  Hence, they'll use an appraiser with some
generalist knowledge and let it go at that. Cam you really blame them?
