[Phono-L] Toy Technologies
Merry Christmas to all... Christmas toy technologies have truly evolved throughout the decades. Matt Woolsey, writer for the on-line publication "GE Reports" interviewed Joan and myself and wrote an interesting article about the not so successful Edison Talking Doll. This and other toy technologies are highlighted in the Holiday Edition. Scroll down to the last article: "Behind the Toy Technologies in Santa's Futuristic Lab" and click the link to "Thomas Edison's Talking Doll". http://www.gereports.com/ Little girls wanted a talking doll for Christmas and today phonograph collectors would also be delighted to find her under their tree Christmas morning.

[Phono-L] an idea
One of my ideas I always wanted to do, was open a working cylinder studio, that used the floorplan of 79 5th ave, in a turn of the century building, have the studio upstairs, and a model of an Edison dealership downstairs. The studio could record two and four minute cylinders, and diamond discs, and sells the new records, has listening booths. Ill never have the funds though to do this. I have the technical knowhow but that is it, is there grants available? ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org

[Phono-L] Unknown Telefunken sample record of the 1930s
I have recently examined a Telefunken sample record, I would guess of the 1930s. Matrix no. is TP 1052. I had no opportunity to reproduce it. Perhaps an expert on early Telefunken could tell me more about it. Which known recordings are neighboring TP 1052? Does an early recording ledger exist of that German company?

Re: [Phono-L] Victor on Ebay
I have noticed the same thing and it is a feature of whatever e-mail program you are using failing to play nice with the seriously fouled up formatting from eBay. If eBay spent more time trying to simplify the reply format and dump all the whiz-bang formating used to appeal to the intellectually challenged users who are attracted to bright shiny things it would all function better.
