I thought I was among seasoned old timy collectors who knew everything, about
everything! This. Is an Edison/ Walter Miller factory recording head, for
studio use to make master cylinder recordings, the knob is the advance ball
adjustment. This device should ONLY be in the hands of someone that is adept
at, and intends, to use it for the purpose so stated, has the knowlwdge to
build the special carrage to use it. It would be a shameful, for this part to
be purchased someone who puts it away, never restores it , does not intend to
use it, that. Would be a waste! I know how to restore it and use it, does
anyone else? I had a collector tell me he had a whole Edison studio lathe, and.
He put it away in some barn, and I offered to teach him how to use it ect, and
he said heWould leave it where it was and did not want to sell it. Oh how
frustrating! Page 45 of the new "In The Groove" has this device in place, it
also can be used to record Diamond Disc masters, as well. What I w
ant to know is how this is in public hands? This should be at the T.E.
Historical Park, perhaps the guy who stole the signatures, stole this too?
