Will you be at the Wayne show this Fall? If so then I'll bring them with me, to avoid shipping costs.

Don-
My flight is booked and I am looking very forward to this fall show. :)

Would be great to pick them up directly, customs and DHL are continuously trying to screw anyone who receives any mail from the US.

I received mine today. It's amazing! Great work.

I'm very glad to see a name and date scribed into the back. I think all such copies should be marked so that some future collector doesn't mistake them for originals.

Replicas like these are a wonderful service to the collecting community. Huge thumbs up.

All my discs are marked, visibly, invisibly and chemically. I completely agree that authenticity needs to be preserved, it would be nice if the people making the reproduction parts did the same ;)

Many kind people, many on this forum, deserve as much of the credit for being kind enough to loan me rare discs like this. Hopefully someday someone else with 5" Berliners will also be willing to loan some discs.

Don,

The 5 inch Berliner replicas arrived today. They are fantastic and really spruce up my K&R display, don’t you think? This is actually K&R record number 77 ‘Hohenfriedberger-Marsch’ (not 458). Thanks again!! Awesome job.

Hey Norman!

Just saw example of your latest cylinder soon to be produced on YouTube. Can I pay you in advance for a copy?

Furthermore; would you be willing to make me a copy of the Edison Needle Type that you put on YouTube of I wanta be bad. Furtherfurthermore--do you still want a digital copy of "Let's Do It" from Diamond disc to cylinder. I will check with Donnie who makes the diamond disc reproductions if he can make you a digital copy of Let's Do It it so you can produce it. Otherwise I will probably send all of my late issue diamond discs for Donnie to copy. Maybe he will be able to make you an mp3 or mp4 copy that you could transfer to disc.

Just Sayin that I would be more than willing to share what I have to be reproduced in bulk for other collectors to enjoy.

Best!
Mark

Hey Mark, I'll have a first batch of Overcoat ready for dispatch next week. I am currently looking for a better pressure pot for improvements so that will be more shifting to October with wear tests. I will start a new thread for the cylinder next week. If he can't do a transfer, I would be able to do that myself in October as I am keeping my own turntable there. :)


@Don: Just let me know if you want to be paid in advance for the three 5" copies.

I am looking forward to my copy of Overcoat. I would like to see Makin Whoopee as a future release. Don released it on Diamond Disc, would be nice as a cylinder too.

Hello Again, Norman!

Just went to your Website and found that you now have "Button Up Your Overcoat" listed as your latest issue. Just wanted to let you know that I have just ordered my copy and sent you payment. Does not look like you have any other "new" issues; so I just ordered the one. Am letting you know via this forum; as my last e-mail about a Caruso cylinder was never responded to. Many Thanks! Mark Roberts.
