  Hello All
 Due to the importance of sharing this information with the collecting
 community (and after a search of the United States Copyright Office!), I am
 happy to announce that I am offering, in a new and very readable format, the
 Clarence Ferguson interview taped and transcribed y Leo Kimmet in 1968,
 where he conducts a lengthy conversation Ferguson that is full of vital and
 fascinating inside information.  Ferguson was employed in the Edison
 phonograph factory since 1907 and eventually became an Edison Phonograph
 dealer, who had new old stock to sell in both parts and records up until the
 1950s/60s.  He was known as the 'last Edison dealer',
 Some of you may remember the booklet, entitled The Edison Phonograph
 Company and Related Opinions of Clarence Ferguson'.  It was published in a
 limited number in 1972. Chapters include 'Records and Recording',
 'Phonograph Repairing', 'The Edison Plant', 'Phonograph Parts', 'Recording
 Artists' and 'Miscellaneous Information'. You won't believe what happened to
 a lot of new phonographs and record moulds when the plant was closed...And
 what happened to all the master cylinder moulds in the early 1930s at Babson
 Brothers...
 The new edition is printed in 8-1/2 x 11 format, with glossy cover, with
 the addition of a photo of Clarence, a photo Leo Kimmet, and the
 reproduction of Clarence's stamp with picture of an Edison phonograph with
 Edison's face inside the horn and Clarence's address above.  As a special
 bonus, I have acquired a number of the original cylinder box labels that
 Clarence had printed up and which he would apply to original Edison Blue
 Amberol boxes.  One of Clarence's original labels will be included with each
 book sold. There are a limited number of 100 labels available, so if you are
 interested please order soon.
 The price is $12.50 including Media Mail shipping in the US. International
 rates will be higher.  Pament can be made by Paypal or by check.  Please
 feel free to ask questions.
