In the meantime, here's a PDF version of the Henry Seymour Catalogue featuring the Superphone I found online --

I'm not sure if the original images were culled from this particular catalogue, but there's a lot of information.

That is indeed the same catalogue with which I started this thread, scanning it from my own hard copy.

Is there any chance of putting the Seymour catalogue back on? I would love to see it. I have a Seymour Superphone.

It will take me a little time to find and scan it again, but if you are an APS member it can be viewed on their website.
Meanwhile I am sure that we would all like to see pictures of your Seymour Superphone.

Thank you Roger - if it is the same as the one emgcr posted obviously there is no need! Emgcr has pictures of my machine and one is posted online under the auspices of Gramophone Museum (not me!).

Can put up some more up shortly.

I am not sure if this might be the catalogue referred to but, if not, may still be of interest ? Sorry it is back-to-front !

I see that the horn illustrated is 16" at the flare and 20" long. The one on our machine is 20" diameter and 24" long. Presumably Henry decided to make a larger version, or it is not original! Not sure what the material is, but could well be Ebonite. When I was an apprentice at GEC in Coventry in the late 1950s there was still an Ebonite works in operation - they made telephone cases from it. Stank to high heaven!
