FOR SALE : ZONOPHONE REPRINTED CATALOG - $17.50 Shipped

[Shawn]

Folks,

Here is an opportunity to get some great information on Zonophones. This is a very eary reprint of an original Zonophone Catalog. It was issued June 10, 1901. It contains the first series of Zonophone phonographs - The A, B, C, and D. It even includes a picture of the never-yet-found Zonophone E - for children!! There are also lots of Zonophone accessories like horns, reproducer, needle boxes, super cool record holder, and two different extended arm set ups shown on a Zonophone A!

I've included an image of the cover page of the catalog below. There are 24 pages of super content in this wonderful catalog.

The catalog has been mildly digitally updated - removing a tear and other abrasions. It has been reprinted on special light weight paper to give the look and feel of the original catalog. Of course it has been discreetly marked as a reprint.

This is a high-quality reprint of a catalog that I believe has never before been reprinted. I've done a limited run of these catalogs. There are only so may available.

The price is $17.50, shipped anywhere in the USA. Checks please, though for orders over $30.00 I will accept paypal friends and family.

Take a look at the attached listing of over 150 high-quality reprinted phonograph items - a wealth of knowledge.

What a great catalog! I had never seen this one before. Lots of interesting material, especially the children's toy machine. I never knew that existed. The introductory pages about how the Zon-o-phone is replacing the "discarded" Gram-o-phone are fascinating. This is choice:

The Twentieth is not the Nineteenth Century.
The Automobile is not the Stage-coach.
The Piano is not the Harpischord.
The ZON-O-PHONE is not the GRAM-O-PHONE.

I also love the description of the Type D, with this gem of marketing hype: "Not so beautiful to look at..." Can you imagine any company describing their product like that today?

As icing on the cake, it includes a lovely photo and description of the rare carrying case, which cost an extra $6.

I appreciate Shawn making all these great reprints available.
