The audio was at first transfered by Treusound Transfers and Christian did some work to it. I did some further work on it, today, about 1:15 you can understand some of the record. This would be the second oldest record of Mr. Edison. The record belongs to a private party, in upstate New York. The audio for this cylinder is http://www.myspace.com/thenorthamericanphonographcompany
This kind of blank is similar to the blank used on the WKL Dickson sound cylinder, smooth bore. This blanks is very much like the ones I make, wonder why they did not offer them commercialy like that. I wonder if these were a batch of the recalled blanks from late december of 1888, and they may have used them for experiments just to have a use for them, even though they new they were not a permenant wax??? What little I can understand is "All is fair game", and talking about stock dividends _________________________________________________________________ Windows Live: Make it easier for your friends to see what you’re up to on Facebook. http://windowslive.com/Campaign/SocialNetworking?ocid=PID23285::T:WLMTAGL:ON:WL:en-US:SI_SB_facebook:082009 _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
