I added a link to this post to the Phonograph related Research Topics in the Archives section, so people can easily locate it after it has moved down in the forum over time. There are many active research topics listed, please check if you have information to add for any of them.

I count 9 Operas for sale at the moment from Stanton’s Auctions. I have no interest in the sale. Wondering if they are from one collection. Are we able to get the serial numbers for those?

Here is the summary of all the serial numbers I have been able to obtain. Have fun parsing it, and please share any insights!

This remains a work in progress, I will continue to add to the list as more numbers turn up. The link will remain valid for future iterations.

I have another one for you Rene. #1305 is owned by a collector friend of mine in New Jersey.

Thanks, Paul. Is it mahogany or oak?
