The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Just got back from a trip to Missouri to see TMF member "Hailey" and had a great time. This fellow is a regular guy who lives in a museum of fantastic proportions! It would be worth anyone's time to meet Doug and see his collections.

His phonograph collection will impress just about anyone who sees it, including at least 3 different 'lamp' phonos. His collection of music boxes will flat knock your hat in the creek, which includes 4 large Regina disc changer machines. That's a few of his collections.

I've attached some photos to give you an idea of what's there. (The player piano has a phonograph inside)

WHEW! CDB

Should we assume you have had his permission for us to view his collection?

Yes. We discussed showing these pictures on the Forum and he was happy to share. CDB
