actually it makes him either a huge devotee...or a crackpot.

I really doubt that anyone could currently buy the name and rights of the
Edison Phonograph Works, just as I doubt that anybody in India bought the
name and rights to the HMV company to make crapophones. Am I right or not?

I believe he bought the name and the rights years ago just like the company
in India that bought the name and rights to the HMV's that we call
crapophones. That is why he has made this claim and I guess it does make him
the
successor. .

Please forgive me if this has come up before.
I have four Edison phonographs with the "urn" style grill. I have
generally seen the grills to be oriented in such a way as to have the
"urn" on the bottom, apparently with the open end up. On the other
hand, here is what I observe about my machi
In Oregon, all it takes is $50 to register an assumed business name.
Heck, I'll go one step further and claim the Edison distributorship
for the west coast. Take that Jerry Blais and Brice Paris!

Sounds like a shady guy. The one thing I never liked about his business is that
he claimed to be successor to the original Edison Phonograph Works...to me that
is just plain dishonest.

I met Shawn Borri at the MME show in New Jersey a few years back. I traded
him and his partner a shaving machine in exchange for eight cylinders. I
received two cylinders at the show and he was going to make the rest when he
got home. I gave him the shaver at the show. This was several years ago
Paul Morris is the only person making concert blanks. I am not sure
what Shawn is doing as he was having problems with landlords regarding
hot wax. You can contact him directly at edisonphonoworks at hotmail.com
He only sells what he has on hand as taking orders causes way too much
grief.
Steve, thank you for the information.
I did not know of Shawn Borri or ever had his address. It must have been his
partner on eBay who was taking the cash and never shipping anything. It
wasn't the money I was ticked about, it was that I did not have modern blank

Well guys, here's your chance to get a nice ALVA, so check it out on eBay. At
$5600 now and 9 days to go. That's plenty of time to empty your bank accounts,
and besides, it's certainly a better investment than the stock market.
I have no problems with PayPal. I think it is great and I've been using it
since fairly close to when they were first established. I agree that if you
accept PayPal then you are likely to get more bids. I also think that when
quoting charges you need to take into account what the cost of the

To be fair, a couple of years later I did find an address for Shawn but all I
asked him was did he have a catalog of recordings. He did not at the time and
I did not follow up. I woul
The guy was selling the records for Shawn, he never paid Shawn and just took
the money and never sent the records. Shawn did give me a record when I
contacted him. Shawn was happy to make the records and was not involved with
the selling. Did you ever contact him?

I had the same problem with Shawn Borri and it still rankles. I even
defended him to strangers because he had a good reputation. No apology,
no refund. I understand his partner screwed him over and he had severe
financial problems, which he may not yet have recovered from; and there
