It seems the name "Thornward" (as I noted in my above post) also appeared on another product sold by MW -- https://www.ebay.com/itm/353931584311 OFphonojim wrote: Thu Jan 16, 2025 4:17 pm Jerry, you are correct. Columbia did build a Thornward cylinder machine for Montgomery Ward ca. 1901 as shown in Howard Hazelcorn's Columbia Phonograph Companion vol. 1 which also includes a note on the origin of the name. As far as I know, that was the only use of the name.
