Re: [Phono-L] New Antique Phonograph Society Announcement

I posted this on 78-l but got no response.  However, I've come to realize over 
the years that the folks on the phono forums are more likely to own these 
obscure vertical cut records.  So, I now ask here as well.

Does anyone have catalog number 123 of Majestic, the U.S. vertical cut record 
from 1916?  The tunes are:

123-A  Daddy by Bettye Shaw
123-B  Barcarolle from Tales of Hoffman by Gramm Trio

I'm interested in the matrix number on side B.  I picked up my first copy of 
this record and in the dead wax it shows 2nd 123 and 10046-2.  The matrix 
of 10046 makes sense but it's the 2nd 123 that has me intrigued that there is 
another pressing of this song with a different matrix.  Many of the early 
Majestics didn't even have a matrix number so perhaps the first one didn't show 
it and those that do I've never seen this nomenclature used.

While I'm asking I'll make my annual call for whether anyone has any Majestics 
they want to write me off-list about either to trade, sell or even just tell me 
what they have as I look to still determine if all records were released that 
were announced.  Thanks.  You can use the email address found on my website 
below.

Thanks to the hard-working folks on the MAPS and APS Boards, we can now offer a 
2014 APS Membership Application here:


https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4204650/dues2014.pdf


Just print it out and mail it to the address on the form, and you'll be all set 
for the new year.  In another month or so, this form will be on the new 
website, and your application can be completed and paid for online.


Best to all,


George P.

As you may have heard, about six weeks ago the memberships of The Antique 
Phonograph Society and the Michigan Antique Phonograph Society voted 98.5% in 
favor of merging the two organizations.  The formal merger is projected for 
January 1, 2014.  For the first year, the new Society will be governed by the 
combined Boards of the current organizations.
 
The new organization,The Antique Phonograph Society, will be publishing a 
quarterly journal (The Antique Phonograph) which will be anexpanded 
combination of the existing APS journal of the same name and the 
MAPS publication, In the Groove.  Rather than waiting for the new year, we 
will mail the first combined journal to all members of the APS and MAPS in 
November (although the masthead date will be December).
 
Enclosed with The Antique Phonograph will be a 2014 membership application 
for 
the merged Antique Phonograph Society.  (Memberships will be on a 
calendar-year basis.)  We hope all members of MAPS and APS will like what they 
see 
in The Antique Phonograph and sign up for 2014. 
 
Watch for the newjournal in November!
 
George Paul
President, Antique Phonograph Society
