[Phono-L] Who is the artist on these early Columbia's
I just picked up a couple of really nice early silver black 10 Columbia Ragtime Comedy songs with piano and vocal. Here are the numbers and titles: Ain't Dat a Shame Baritone Solo No. 378 and Every Morn I bring her Chicken Baritone Solo No. 1448. Ain't Dat a Shame (a ragtime number sounding alot like a take off on Won't you come home Bill Bailey) could be Bob Roberts, but I am not totally certain, while the Chicken song sounds a good deal like Dan W. Quinn, but again I would like to be sure as to who the artist is. Thanks in advance for your help. According to Steve's dating book 378 would be 1901 and 1448 would be 1903.

Re: [Phono-L] Hexaphone headboard
Are you still looking for a repro Hexaphone headboard? I may have an extra.Bob Kolba In a message dated 7/20/2009 2:10:52 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, ge...@comcast.net writes: A few months ago, someone had some repro Hexaphone headboards (piece above the machine for writing). I'm not sure what the correct term is, but I am looking for this piece for my machine. Can anyone tell me where I might get either an original OR a repro of the Hexaphone headboard? OR, can the person who made these, make me one??? Or, failing that, can someone give me a detailed diagram with measurements and specs so that I can have one made myself?? Thanks so much, Ger ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
[Phono-L] Edison Home C bearing
Received this information from Terry Baer. Sorry for delayed response. The model C used a unique mandrel assembly with captured bearing. Picture an early two minute mandrel shaft. Remove the mandrel and turn down the area under the mandrel to about 5/16 leaving the larger 5/8 feedscrew. Now slip on a bearing that is 5/8 OD 5/16 ID. Now slip on a mandrel with smaller 5/16 holes on both ends. Now slip the whole assembly in the top works. Mike Tucker ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
