I was wondering if maybe we could start posting a photo of us with our machine(s). I think it would be great to see the face behind the member name on the forum, maybe a good way to put a name with a face, as some us do not get out to the shows.
This is me with my Magnola Talking Machine.

Interesting idea; dress in your Sunday best.

Sorry, but I ain't posin' in my jammies. The internet is just. not. ready....dress in your Sunday best.
Besides, there's already a perfectly good picture of me just to the left of this post.

An old picture, but it's with the original Kruesi prototype phonograph at the Edison Site:

I see you also appreciate vintage watches: is that an original Hamilton Electric you're wearing on your wrist?TinfoilPhono wrote:An old picture, but it's with the original Kruesi prototype phonograph at the Edison Site:

Shawn Borri with a display I did this year at the Bureau County fair. This display is the history of the cylinder record including the NAPC cylinder to Blue Amberol, including molds and photos of the Edison studio, and 1900 record making photos, explanations of the equipment.

Re: Members Photos with a Machine
This is a picture of me years ago. I don't have any recent pics of me with a machine. I still have all of the phonographs in the picture with the exception of the Victor 1 that's between the Victor M and the Columbia BY. A friend of mine loved the Victor 1 so we worked out a deal for it. The extra plate on the Victor 1 seen below the regular Victor 1 ID plate is a Canadian Berliner Gramophone plate. I travelled to a small estate auction near Rochester NY to buy it and a few other items. Ron Sitko made the trip too and he came home with a nice Columbia AK. Just below my right hand is the end of the horn on my Victor type A that wasn't included in the picture by my son who framed and snapped the picture. It's amazing to realize how dramatically my collection evolved after this picture.
