When you get one phonograph you get 20 or lots more after you are bit. Sounds like he is a little creative with some of the machines. Tom B

I wondered about that:

"He also restored some phonographs by installing turntables from one model into the cabinet of another and by custom building cabinets."

I'm hoping that doesn't mean "Franken-phones." :o

Still, it's nice to read about a fellow phonophile in the general news.
