Aaron, I agree with your idea of education, too bad the Roadshow people don't. When I first started to collect I was extremely interested in finding more info on phonos, it took me about two years of looking until I found Allen back in 1985, there was no website that I knew of and APM and the books he sold quenched the thirst for knowledge I had and gave me a good foundation for future learning. This is why these days I find ignorance sad. I went to Google and typed in antique phonograph books and the first site that came up was:
Antique Phonograph Books (Victor Victrola Edison Columbia Bettini)Antique phonograph and record collecting - books and information to help you with your hobby. members.aol.com/allenamet/PhonoBooks.html - 15k - Cached - Similar pages I do not watch TV, but find it sad 'experts' do not do their homework.
