Nothing in Chicago yet! Rats is right. Though I got my new and improved Compleat Talking machine book by Eric L. Reiss today. SO maybe tomorrow. That bright front pops enough already. I may need some sun glasses. Love that machine and cabinet though. Neil

Sharon freaks out when she sees the covers. Cracks me up. I tell her we need to get people's attention!

Hey, it's almost Spring -- everything's turning green in the bright sunshine. ;) (At least in California.)

But not every issue is so eye-popping. Remember this one? Variety's the spice!

Got mine on 04 MAR 19. About halfway through. It always take a week to read and digest the material. Great job, guys.

Geeze March 8th and nothing in the mail yet. Not Nauck's catalog, APS magazine or a record I bought. Perhaps it will all come at once. A dry spell in Chicago! Neil

How strange that mine arrived yesterday 8th March after a 4,000 mile journey, yet some members in parts of the USA are still waiting for theirs.

The article on Interchangeable Diaphragm Soundboxes is very interesting. I never knew such things existed.

The article about the Edison family garage is also interesting, but as a classic car enthusiast I was left wondering what automotive treasures that garage once contained. Any chance of a follow up article for the petrol heads among us?

Four pages on Victrola serial numbers and another four on obscure Victrola models are of little interest to me, as Victrolas are seldom seen in the UK, but I am not complaining. The APS is an American society and it's magazine content understandably reflects this.

Well I know I won't get mine. I am a snow bird and the post office think's it's junk mail. So they don't forward all my mail. What they think is junk get filed. They don't even hold it for me. I have talked to then with no luck.
