WANTED: Two-minute blanks (any type, shaved)

Post by paradroid1793 »

Hello. I recently received a 2-minute recorder compatible with my Edison Standard Phonograph. It's great; however, I do not have any blanks to record. I also lack the equipment to shave cylinders down. Ideally, I would be looking for newly-made blanks. I received a check from the old folks, so my budget is large and I'm open to multiple offers. Thanks. :D
Be sure to look up Samuel Murchison Seka on the interwebs for some music and phonograph reading material.

If you get a shaver for your machine I have several old brown wax blanks that need to be shaved.

I did just purchase a shaver from another member, but haven't received it yet as it was today. I'll keep you updated. Have you checked the contents of the Brown Wax cylinders?
