I, too, found one just like this in an Edison C250. It sheds worse than a shaggy dog. Amazed there is still any fur left on it. CDBBrad wrote:Here is my contribution. It came with my Edison Jacobean and is very well made. There are no manufacturers or advertizing markings on it and I have never seen a similar one. Anybody know anything about it?

Re: Show us your Record Duster!
Thought I would add a new one I just picked up. I like how it represents a Victrola red label Enrico Caruso record.

Re: Show us your Record Duster!
I picked up a Columbia 710 Viva-tonal (from the original owner's great grandson) a month or so ago that had 3 identical dusters still inside. The top surface was completely gone from one, but I kept 2 of them. They are about 5 inches long and advertise a Columbia dealer located at 747 Merrimack Street in a town in Massachusetts whose name I couldn't decipher from what is left. Ironically, his first name was Victor. The last name is Achin. I found him in a 1940 census living nearby at 784 Merrimack in Lowell.

I just recently picked this one off of Ebay...
It's made of some kind of metal and has an unusual oxidixed finish...

That duster looks nice, and while it would be awesome to have an Opera, it would likely go best with a Victor R.Dave wrote:I just recently picked this one off of Ebay...
