Auction Hunters w/Scott Corbett

[MTPhono]

I was just watching Auction Hunters (Episode 11). The boys found a nice Edison Home w/Cygnet horn. To get an expert evaluation of what they found, it was brought to Scott Corbett. What a pleasant surprise...an actual "expert"!

I enjoyed the program very much. I did wonder why the 2-minute Home had a Cygnet horn. I would have expected a period correct Home with a Cygnet to be a 2&4 minute player or a 4-minute machine. Original owners would spend money for the combination attachment and then possibly the Cygnet horn. I'd guess the machine passed through a more modern owner that added the Cygnet. Good job Scott!

Only $1700 for the Regina? Isn't that remarkably low? Seems everytime I look at a Regina it's in the neighborhood of $5K?

On his wall, Scott Corbett had some of my grandfather's record company's 78s. I've been hunting these down for years - they are unique in that they have colored swirl vinyl. I want them more for the music on them... as many of the songs were written by both my grandfather and grandmother (and some by my dad)



Does anyone have any idea how I might contact Scott Corbett?



I know he's a teacher in Upland, CA and he lives in Ontario, CA....but I can't find an e-mail address or phone #?



Any info you can provide would be very much appreciated.

If anyone reading this belongs to a record organizations that might be able to help me hunt down more of these 78s...I'd also appreciate that info.

Thanks a million!
