The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I have a novice customer in Spain with an Edison Home A that he cannot get to operate. Due to the language barrier I do not understand exactly what his problem is.

Do we have a member in Spain, preferably in the Barcelona area, that could assist in any way?

thanks,

Raphael

Forum member Pedro Martinez in Madrid saw my post and graciously volunteered to assist. He has already been in contact with my client. Although I've already extended my thanks of appreciation to him, I wanted to give a shout-out here as well, and to the Forum for providing a venue to solve the problem. About 10 years ago I had a similar issue in Japan and without being a Forum member at the time, it was very difficult finding a solution.

Pedro is a great guy, very knowledgeable. I have collector friends in Spain and one in China if you ever need help from that corner.

I'm a Spaniard too, I live in Madrid. Used to know other collectors in Madrid many years ago, but after years living out of Madrid and n being far from the hobby, I lost track of them. Now i only know of Pedro, by the web, and also of a CLPGS member colleague who lives in Málaga, which I knew in Malvern.

Just wanted to give an update here, Pedro fixed my customer's machine to his complete satisfaction. I have thanked him personally (and profusely!)

This is another great example of how this Forum can be of great value to collectors.
