Done. It may need some changes but I can change it at any time. Here is a link to the gofundme: gofundme.com/paul-morris-shop-fire-phonoforum
I can start a new thread if y'all rather that.
Let me know if I need to make changes.

Re: Paul Morris Shop Fire
I've ran into a snag. I didn't know he was out of country...and they need a social, US address, and email to withdraw the money...is there someone close to him that lives stateside that can give money to him? Unfortunately it seems whoever this person is may be liable for the taxes. It may be better to do PayPal donations. Live and learn lol

Re: Paul Morris Shop Fire
I agree. A Fire never stopped Edison, It just made his resolve stronger.
Paul has contributed so much over the past years that I think a "Go Fund Me" page is an excellent idea. I think that along with reproduction 5" Concert cylinders, I think that he made some excellent reproduction Edison Reproducers as well such as the "C", "H", and "O" I think.
I think Paul deserves whatever support that the Phonograph community can give him.

Re: Paul Morris Shop Fire
I think you're confusing Paul Morris with Paul Baker. Morris makes brown wax blanks and records, Baker made reproducers many years ago. They were beautifully made. I have one of his C reproducers and it sounds better than any of my originals. You couldn't tell it from original without checking the serial number, which has P as a prefix and B as a suffix.

Re: Paul Morris Shop Fire
Yes, You're right.. It is Paul Baker that makes the Repro reproducers in the U.K.
Thanks for the correction.

Re: Paul Morris Shop Fire
I messaged him on Facebook and asked him to check his messages related to this. I'm sure it will be greatly appreciated. Great idea!EdisonWizard wrote:I sent them a message on their website, I need who will withdraw funds and the email they use to accept invite for the gofundme.

I sent you a PM Edison Wizard with an idea on how this could work.EdisonWizard wrote:I've ran into a snag.
