The Antique Phonograph Society received a plea for help from a woman in Arlington, VA regarding her family heirloom Edison Disc Phonograph. She thinks it needs cleaning/lubrication. In addition, the reproducer's stylus may need replacement. (The APS recommended she send that out either to Steve Medved or Wyatt Marcus.)
Can anyone in the Washington D.C. area help her? I can supply contact information for a Good Samaritan.

Re: Help Needed for Edison Disc Phono in Arlington, VA
Hi George-- I'm about 30-45 minutes from Arlington (it's a big county-- LOTS of DC traffic!)-- I don't have many DD parts left. No problem helping with the reproducer, but not many motor parts left in my piles. Send me her contact info and I'll be happy to do what I can.
