Does anyone have an extra copy of "Restoring the Edison Gem Phonograph" by Mike Field? I am looking for a copy.

Thanks,
Mike

This book has been reprinted as "CLPGS Reference Series No.7" and is available from www.clpgs.org.uk .
It costs GBP£7.00 to non-members, but if you are outside the UK you will need to ascertain the cost of postage.

Thank you! This book is not available in the USA. I have inquired.

Just to be clear, the prices for Reference Series booklets quoted on the CLPGS web site include world wide postage and packing - there is nothing further to pay and we post to anywhere in the world. Currently, all booklets are in stock except RS23 which is being reprinted and will be available in the next couple of weeks

Mike - (I assume it is you) I sent your copy of RS7 off to you yesterday.

All the best

Yes, it was me! Thanks again. I actually tried to get this book through interlibrary loan in the U.S. but no library would agree to lend it, even for a fee, including the Library of Congress. I have a background working in public libraries and this sort of thing rarely happens. I should have thought of going to you in the first place.

Cheers from the U.S. - Mike
