Show me your record duster - revisited

[briankeith]

Why in the world do these Edison record dusters command such high prices? I find these often - and locally, but not for these crazy prices. Just curious - maybe it's just the Edison name people capitalize on? I have four, all different, some with phonograph shop names, some plain. Most from New Jersey.

Can be summed up in just one word...CRAZY.

I find these often

Consider yourself fortunate. While I'm not one of the buyers who would pay "crazy" prices for these, nor would I agree that they should realize outrageous prices, they simply don't turn up very often...at least not in places I have searched. I've found just one of these in 25 plus years of collecting. It was with a model W-250. I'm sure they turn up at phonograph shows (I've never attended one) but most everywhere else that I've looked, not much luck at all. Perhaps I'm alone on this but I just don't see these turn up.

There is one listed on EBay right now for a whopping $275.00 believe it or not (201016177570) BUT I still love showing and collecting record dusters - mainly the round ones and Christmas ones.......
