The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Good ideas friends, but I only have in hand this old tin schuco mouse. This will probably attract the kids instead of kicking out, really not a good idea !!

I'd say to show and play a few to the kids, but don't let them handle the cylinders! Maybe we could interest a few more young people in the hobby?

I have done this with my son Theodoros, who is 6 years old, already knows a lot about cylinders, disks and machines.

Great, and very cute, pictures! I love your sign asking if your visitors know the difference between a gramophone, phonograph and victrola! Must be a great way to get conversation started with friends and family.

Thank you Melvind, is not that you noticed the brochure with the question ... this was a fair that I agreed to do to duplicate my work and sell some antiques. He had another leaflet too, wondering if he knows the most famous dog in the world, with the image on Nipper, it was fun to do.

That's great! Those are some nice pictures, too!
