If that is the best image that National Geographic can create, they need to 
fire their graphics person... I am not an expert PhotoShop user, but I can do 
better than this by a long shot. George is right, it is a Standard A image that 
has been flipped and squinched into an Amberola case... they didn't even bother 
to edit out the original Amberola horn/arm from behind and below. I 
particularly like the nice touch of adding an external horn in an internal horn 
machine, or maybe this was one of those "rare" phono finds on eBay. LOL

Interesting.  The image appears to have been photoshopped with a mechanism 
from an Edison Standard A - reversed!  Who says you can't believe 
advertising?

[Phono-L] TV Show "Abandoned" Edison Amerola 5?

2012-08-21 Thread Tom Jordan
I have seen an ad several times on the History Channel for a new show called
Abandoned.  Apparently these guys go into old buildings that have been
abandoned for decades and look for treasures.

One item that they show in the ad is an Edison floor model machine that they
identify as an Edison Amberola V.  You can clearly see that it has an
internal horn, but they have imposed a witches hat horn on it as well.  They
value it at $2,300.00.

Has anyone else seen this ad?
