[Phono-L] Who is the artist on these early Columbia's

2009-08-08 Thread bruce78rpm

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.

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] Edison Home C bearing

2009-08-08 Thread Mike Tucker
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.
