The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Hey Guys -

So, it's only 11am and I'm already posting pictures? Well, I went... and it was *crazy* crowded from another toy show going on... people were double parked everywhere, people couldn't set much up. Obviously, it's still going on as I post this but I only only stayed for an hour or so. ...but, enjoy!

Nice photos—thanks for sharing them. Were you planning on going back later, or were you done with today’s parking lot extravaganza?

Not today no, unless that toy show ends... it's crazy busy over there. I will be there tomorrow! (although with no spending $)

...and I like the poster. It's amazing that it survived, I mean, advertising banners generally just get thrown out once the advertisement is over, especially A Christmas/seasonal banner.

What's the machine on the table, in the photo above the banner pic? A shaving machine?

Yes, manually turning I believe.

Hello,
I liked the picture of all the Blue Amberol cylinders. Do you remember how much the fellow was asking for them??

No sorry, but the sign in front of them all read "new old stock, never been played".

They were sorted at different price levels according to type: dance bands, military, vocalists, etc., and the cheapest catagory was twenty dollars apiece.
