[Phono-L] Midnight, The Stars, and You
Not only did we have a very nice copy in our auction that just closed 3 weeks ago, Brian and I featured it in the Bidder Request Show. It sold for $37.87 The next copy I find I'll put on eBay for the benefit of all those who don't get our catalog! You and everyone else, Brantley! I, too, have been searching for this one. The last one that came up on eBay sold for over $300 - which out bid me. Cheers! Will (Chicago, IL) On Nov 24, 2013, at 2:00 PM, phono-l-requ...@oldcrank.org wrote: Hi! Happy holidays to all.?

So I've posted about 100 things on eBay, and there is much more to come. Search on nauck3, or go to http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=_in_kw=1_ex_kw=_sacat=0_okw=_oexkw=_adv=1_udlo=_udhi=_ftrt=901_ftrv=1_sabdlo=_sabdhi=_samilow=_samihi=_sadis=200_fpos=_fsct=LH_SALE_CURRENCY=0_fss=1_fsradio=%26LH_SpecificSeller%3D1_saslop=1_sasl=nauck3_sop=12_dmd=1_ipg=200 You'll find parts, needle tins, phonographs, records, tapes, Nippers, music rolls, cylinder cases, record sleeves and much more.

[Phono-L] Victor 10-50
I just picked up a nice Victor 10-50. The cabinet and finish are in good shape, original grill cloth, original record loading spindle, 2 albums (1 10 1 12) The mechanism works, though the pot metal parts have not been replaced. It is missing the little roller at the top of the record changing arm. The reproducer is also pot metal, but appears to be in good condition and looks like it would sound ok. Problem is, the little ball bearings are gone so the needle bar is loose. It is possible that I could deliver this machine on a future trip; otherwise, I can load it on a pallet and freight it straight to the buyer. Best offer over $1K; email me if you would like to see pictures. Kurt Nauck na...@78rpm.com www.78rpm.com Kurt Nauck c/o Nauck's Vintage Records 22004 Sherrod Ln.

[Phono-L] Indestructible/US Everlasting Cylinder Records Book
P.S. I have no connection to it but might as well mention that I also went to the Mainspring Press website and found that Sutton/Nauck are about to launch a book this week about Indestructible. What timing! What timing indeed - they just arrived by freight from our publisher this morning! It's a detailed discography of US Everlasting and Indestructible cylinders with corporate histories, indexes and full color plates of the different cylinder boxes. Copies may be had for $49 postpaid to US addresses. Thanks for the inadvertent promo, Glenn! Kurt Nauck c/o Nauck's Vintage Records 22004 Sherrod Ln.

[Phono-L] Pathe
Yes, diffuser - that's the word. A very interesting contraption - especially the way the whole assembly rotates in order to switch from vertical to lateral. And surprisingly good sounding as well. Of course, I could deliver it to you on my way to ARSC in May, John. That would give you plenty of time to clear out a spot for it! Kurt Nauck c/o Nauck's Vintage Records 22004 Sherrod Ln.

[Phono-L] Triumph
Hey there Bill I have a beautiful, 100% original Banner front Triumph with 2/4 minute gearing, vertical carriage, O reproducer and cygnet horn. The pinstriping is great, original finish and decal - the whole works. Best of all, no one has monkeyed with it, so you also get the original grime. There is only one problem as far as I can see -there are 2 sets of holes drilled in back for the cygnet horn mount. Not a big deal, and easily fixed by someone who knows what they're doing. Not that it would really need to be fixed; in fact, 2 of the extra holes are covered by the bracket. And here's the icing on the cake - on the front is a celluloid dealers tag from the Jacot Music Box Company, New York! I'll bring my camera in tomorrow and take some pictures.

Re: [Phono-L] Once upon a time,
I would say this re. missing items. It can be very easy to assume a person took something when they've been visiting and an important item is missing. But invariably, I've found that things have a way of reappearing. I once lost a couple of 5 Berliners. (Fortunately, no one had been visiting at the time!) Years later they turned up in a box of 45s and small kiddie records. Nice surprise. Kurt Nauck c/o Nauck's Vintage Records 22004 Sherrod Ln.

[Phono-L] Once upon a time,
I visited the home of a long-time collector in New Jersey. He had passed away, and his sister was handling the estate. She told me that some months earlier, a particular fellow showed up to look at the collection (presumably at her invitation). He was given access to the rooms containing the phonographs and records. He wound up buying some records from her, but when he was loading up, she noticed that he had also helped himself to some other items that were not part of the deal. She confronted him about this obvious theft, he got angry, hopped in his vehicle and took off. She didn't recover the items. Most of the people associated with this hobby are wonderful folks that you could let loose in your collection while you went grocery shopping. But not all.

[Phono-L] Collector's Guide to Victor Records
As Steve said, it is now available. I picked up copies from the printer in Boston last week, and the book is fabulous. Here is the brochure blurb: The Collector's Guide to Victor Records (2nd Edition) by Michael Sherman w/Kurt Nauck 7 x 10, 288 pp with 850 full color illustrations With roots extending all the way back to the birth of the disc recording industry, Victor reigned supreme throughout the 78 rpm era. Herein lies the story of Victor's standard-catalog 78 rpm record label, traced from Berliner (its predecessor) to the demise of the 78 rpm format. All four of Victors standard label colors (Black, Red, Blue Purple) are documented in detail along with all changes made to the Victor label throughout its 60 year run. The second section of the book highlights many of the notable singers, personalities and world leaders who recorded for Victor, leaving a priceless, treasured legacy for future generations. Included are such luminaries as Enrico Caruso, Leopold Stokowski, Will Rogers, Nellie Melba, King George V, Charles Lindbergh, Theodore Roosevelt, Harry Lauder, Adelina Patti, Amos Andy, Robert Peary and dozens of others. The Victor Talking Machine Company (later RCA Victor) produced countless recordings outside their normal domestic catalog issues. The third section features ethnic recordings, imports, picture discs, puzzle records, subsidiary labels such as Bluebird and Zonophone, contract pressings, pattern labels, long-playing Program Transcriptions, vanity issues, childrens records, test pressings, radio transcriptions, demo records, soundtrack discs, client labels, in-house recordings and sample pressings. There's even a page devoted to errors and imitation records! The fourth section includes pictures of record sleeves, company catalogs, supplements and other Victor publications in addition to record release charts, rarity guides and a comprehensive bibliography and index. One would expect a compendium such as this to be dull and lifeless, but Sherman and Nauck's engaging style, attention to detail and brilliant label images make the story come alive. The entire book is profusely illustrated in resplendent full-color, and will be equally at home on the coffee table or the reference shelf. No archive or serious collector should be without it. $39 Softcover or $60 Hardback (Limited Edition of 500, signed numbered) Add $5 for shipping; check, credit card and paypal accepted. You may order from Nauck's Vintage Records, na...@78rpm.com And yes, all the Victor picture records are listed and shown, including one or two you have never seen before!
