Steve, All I can say is that they are mighty proud of their Edisons! It reminds me of a local antique shop in Aiken, S.C. Just last week, an Edison 30 without the grill went for a whopping $875.00. I guess the buyer thought he got a real bargain since $1850.00 was the original asking price, but marked through with $875.00 on the price tag. I just participated in a local museum Collector's Day by displaying about five of my machines. I got a lot of oohs and ahhs. The one thing that I encouraged future collectors to do is to join a group or club. This will help provide the knowledge to help keep from paying too much or getting ripped off.
Most people don't have a clue and just buy on impulse. Take care all and help me find a Nipper please. Thanks ever so much. Brantley _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
