Ooops - I must apologize to the list.? I thought I was sending these directly to Bob Johnson and Jim Cartwright.? Kindly forgive my computer illiteracy.?
...But in an attempt to salvage a humiliating situation, if any of you have not yet responded, here's your chance!? If you'd care to send me A) the serial number, B) type of lid - early smooth or later stepped, C) whether the corner post tops are carved or smooth, D) type of grille - lyre, 1st Rococo, or 2nd Rococo, E) whether the front door has a flat or curved bottom edge, F) whether the drawers are equipped with clips or wooden dividers, and the ten followup questions below, I'll gratefully add your information to the database.? Results will be shared in an upcoming issue of "The Soundbox."? Once again, my apology to the list for bothering everyone with this. Best regards and a happy Thanksgiving to all - - George Paul -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, 22 Nov 2008 8:46 pm Subject: Re: [Phono-L] Research: Amberolas 1A and 1B Dear Jim, I want to thank you again for your help with my Amberola 1A research, and to ask your continued help with some followup questions.? The information supplied by owners of 1As sometimes included data I hadn't asked for - yet it opened further avenues of research.? If I can impose on you once more to answer the following questions, we can hopefully clear up most of the mystery that surrounds the Amberola 1As. I'd like to add the following data to that which you have already kindly supplied me: 1) Your 1A serial number (for tracking purposes): 2) Number of vents/louvers on the side of your cabinet: 3) Does your cabinet have cloven hooves as front feet? 4) Is your interior grille (behind the mechanism) 1-piece or 2-piece?? Lattice or curlycue design? 5) What is the height of your cabinet? (Please note if height is without casters): 6) Are the record drawer fronts separated from each other by trim, or do they virtually touch each other? 7) Is there a cabinet number stamped anywhere?? Particularly under the horn? 8) Are there blue ink, pencil, or chalk markings inside the cabinet or on the backs of the drawers? 9) Are the drawer backs finished? 10) Finally, does the lock take a flat key or round shank key?? Is there a lock code stamped on the lock? I realize that I'm imposing, and please know that I appreciate your assistance.? This is a labor of love for both of us!
