Re: [Phono-L] six springs! count 'em
Wow, that is pretty darn incredible ! I can't imagine that many of them produced or sold. I wonder why there is not a hint on or in the cabinet or on the bed plate as to who made it . - Original Message - From: "Alan Wohl" To: "Antique Phonograph List" Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2011 3:29:58 PM Subject: [Phono-L] six springs! count 'em When I read about a six spring machine I remembered one that I had thirty years ago. I got it up at the Brimfield , Ma. flea market and thought it was quite a find. Had it for a little while before I sold it. Never did find out what or who made it.

Re: [Phono-L] six springs! count 'em
Astounding! Seems odd that with the ready-availability of Edison Standards years ago that somebody would choose to remake the entire deck plate and most of the top end mechanicals. But the 64 dollar question is: WHAT is with the 6 springs ??!! Maybe the guy wanted to wind it once and have it play for the rest of his life. WTF? Might make sense if it was a coin-op that got wound only once a month. I don't get it.
