Re: [Phono-L] [phonolist] Norcross Phonograph Co
The Norcross Phonograph Company was founded by Issac W. Norcross in New York City in the late 1890s. Norcross made his own recordings and pantographically duplicated them for sale. He also marketed a now-rare Jumbo record, which was a standard-size cylinder. Norcross also was the target of several lawsuits brought by larger manufacturers who alleged that he was supplying pantograph machines to others who were copying Edison and Columbia cylinders. In 1908 Norcross marketed a Norcross Reproducer made especially for Indestructible cylinders.

[Phono-L] stripping Edison bed-plates question

Re: [Phono-L] stripping Edison bed-plates question
I'd like a refresher on that too. Just got in a lowly model B Standard, that's a good machine with a nice cabinet, nickel parts and combination attachment, but some blankety-blank polished all the stripes and umbrella signature off of it.

Re: [Phono-L] stripping Edison bed-plates question
In my opinion do not strip unless you have to, use the old paint as a primer. You will be amazed at the casting defects in the bedplates.

Re: [Phono-L] stripping Edison bed-plates question
You can strip a bedplate by soaking in a solution of Red Devil lye. Be advised that the black bedplates are coated with asphaltum -- not paint. Colored bedplates are coated with tinted shellac -- not paint.

Re: [Phono-L] stripping Edison bed-plates question
I dropped a p in my brain when I read this. I'm not interested in stripping, but striping! Yes, the castings are rough. This Standard B has salvageable black surface on the bed plate, but barely a trace of the STRIPING. Who has the best kit and/or method for re-striping and decalling an Edison Standard?
