FOR SALE: Phonographs Books at the APS Expo: Various

Post by phonogfp »

The Antique Phonograph Society still has a few sets (10) of the 4-volume Charles Gregory books on Edison Disc Records. Originally published for $200, the APS is offering these spiral-bound sets at the Expo on August 12-13 for only $40 for APS members or $70 for non-members. (If you do the math, you'll see that U.S. collectors can thus join the APS for free!)

Since the Gregory books are $70 for non-members, but only $40 for members, just pay the non-member price and - voila - you can be a member for free...because we'll apply the $30 to your membership...then you get the member price...

Okay - maybe humor isn't my strong suit.

I have the 4 volume Edison set. The price is a bargain for that set. I remember when they were selling for $200.00 a set.

Joe,
I sent you a PM on October 19 in response to your query. It said:

Hi Joe,

I just checked and there are 5 or 6 sets out in California (I'm in New York). For APS members, they're $40 + shipping a set, and $70 + shipping for non-members. Obviously, you can join up when ordering a set and your membership is basically free.

If you're interested, just send an email from the "Contact Us" page on the APS web site, and include your zip code so shipping can be calculated. Here's the "Contact Us" page:

Best,
George
