Yes, it's terrible to contemplate the dark corners of the human mind.
Peterson apparently had a screw loose -- a sociopath, without conscience about
the people and institutions he was hurting. I'm reminded of Bernie Madoff.

I've read everyone's comments on eBay with great interest. Personally, I've
never liked it, and I like it even less now, if that is possible. Any
organization that makes it so easy for scoundrels to flourish is bad, in my
opinion.
Furthermore, eBay has turned into a monolith, like the Phone

I've seen a TON of collections, but this particular 80 doesn't look

About that Victor I -- I suppose that felt collar could be an aftermarket

never seen it before. The horn extension is a conventional Victor I/Victor E

On this subject, I'd like to tell the rest of you something that might not be
commonly known. Years ago (20, 30 years ago) there was a man who lived in
Fulton, NY who was a big phonograph collector. He LOVED Edisons especially. He
had a fabulous collection, and he sold it off over a long period

The Edison collector I knew lived in Fulton, NY. He loved Edisons. He painted

RE the record cabinet --- I'd say the guy doesn't know the difference
between vinyl and shellac. I've noticed this lately, the defining terms are
becoming confused over time. Anyway-- there do appear to be some Diamond Discs
