Kudos! I think it is wonderful to display phonographs to the public. When doing the waves and sound section of my Physics classes I always started with a suitcase Home playing a record. I showed the students there were no wires or hidden batteries. My challenge to them was to write a paper on how it worked. That sent them to the university library. A few even became owners of acoustical phonographs and I still have contact with one student from 39 years ago who has a common Victrola I found for him. He still plays it regularly with records he found in Salvation Army. To my knowledge none became phonograph collectors so there must be something about the rest of us that is different!

My father, who passed away in March, was in the process of building one of the Grandfather clock kits. He had purchased this many years ago and had worked less and less on it as his health declined. In any event, I now have the almost completed clock, but there are no weight covers for the movement. I believe the movement number is a 102 and the kit came from someplace in Alabama. I'm sorry to be so vague right now, but I do have better info at home. If it helps, the chimes are a sequence of "wires" instead of tubes. >I have the weights and was wondering if anyone knew of a place to locate the covers/coverkit. >Thanks, > John >_______________________________________________ >Phono-L mailing list >http://phono-l.oldcrank.org _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
