The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I contacted Norman Bruderhofer several months ago about purchasing a copy of what was his latest cylinder that had a song recorded by Ermine Calloway. He told me to check in with him in a few months to see if he had produced more copies of it. I can't find his website anywhere and the link I had doesn't come up anymore. Does anyone know if he is OK and if he's still producing cylinder records?

I did a little web searching and came up with an alternate email address from https://www.nbds.de/

Thanks!

He ended up responding to an email I sent him. He's just taking a break.

I was wondering about Norman too. I’m glad to hear he’s okay. Everyone needs a break now and then.

Hello friends, At this time, my website is still closed but I will have a handful of copies of a new seasonal title at the Wayne Show next weekend.
My Edison workhorse machine needs some repair, so no time to do a video yet.
After a well-needed break I am slowly planning a restart with a more streamlined catalog, likely at the end of this month or early November.

Ordering will resume once the site has been re-opened.

Thanks for your patience,
Norman

Hi Norman! I aan sooo overjoyed to see that you are becoming active again doing something that brings so much joy to so many collectors! Without you there are many of ilus who would never have benefited from the treasures you've created! Praying for only good things for you as you continue to move forward in your life and our hobby!

Glad to hear you’re doing better my friend! I would like to reserve a copy of Deep Hollow. If you can give it to Paul Baker at Wayne. I can settle up with the costs with you directly. Thanks!
