Edison BA Blurbs/pamphlets

Post by gramophoneshane »

John's DD blurbs thread gave me an idea.
I thought if anyone who has pamphlets still with their BA cylinders could post scans, we could print out replacements, and build a library of these pamphlets over time.
I only have 2 unfortunately- No's 1712 & 2137

Shane,

Those are great. Dethlefson's book doesn't have 1712 so that one especially is a boon.

Which Dethlefson book has these? I didn't know they were printed anywhere.
Does it show most of the pamphlets or just a few?

I've been experimenting with printing what I've posted, and it doesn't work to print directly from the px above.
If you click on the picture & the large version comes up, then bring up the drop down menu from the printer icon in the tool bar, select print preview, resize to 46%, it should come out clear & close to the original size without cropping the picture.
This is on Windows Vista anyway :)

Shane,

Check-out Mulholland Press. Edison Blue Amberol Recordings 1912-1914 & Edison Blue Amberol Recordings 1915-1929-two very good books by Ronald Dethlefson. They contain among other things reprints of many of the inserts and the later catalogs and supplements.

Regards,
John
