I guess I'm different. The famly had a Victrola XI in fumed oak that dated from about 1919. There were about 65 records with it, and in 1937 or so, my mom showed me how to play the thing. I'd spend hours, playing those records. Mom couldn't figure out how I could enjoy that old music, and I never worried why, myself. Neighbors would give me records, and finally, I got new ones for Christmas and birthdays. It went on from there....uncontrolloed.

I've only been collecting 15 years (since I was 13) but feel I have been welcomed by so many people with so much wider knowledge and experience, and have made some friends in the process. This list has served a big part in that excitement. > > So thankyou and I wish you all a Very Happy New Year! > > Best Regards, > Mario Frazzetto (Melbourne, AUSTRALIA) > > www.PhonographsAndGramophones.com > > _______________________________________________ > Phono-L mailing list > Phono-L@oldcrank.org > > Phono-L Archive > http://phono-l.oldcrank.org/archive/ > > Phono-L RSS Feed > http://phono-l.oldcrank.org/feed/index.rss > > Support Phono-L > http://www.cafepress.com/oldcrank
