When I started collecting there was only the Read - Welch book, From Tinfoil to Stereo. Now we have a wealth of information from many fine authors and researchers. The collector society groups have regularly turned out some very respectable research articles as well. I very much enjoy seeing how the hobby has become aware of phonographic history and embraced it. Tim and Paul's great books would go nowhere without active collectors purchasing their great works. So, the real thanks should go to the collectors like yourself who seek knowledge about what they have, what is original, and how to preserve it. Your support is the real power keeping this history alive. AND... That would be everyone else on this list too ! ! !
