Thank you to everyone who tuned in to yesterday’ Thank you to everyone who tuned in to yesterday’s sale. It has been a little more difficult to find good things with the restrictions that Covid has imposed. I long for the days of live auctions and large antique markets. “Don't know where, Don't know when, But I know we'll meet again some sunny day”

Here is a booth shot. At least you can still don your trusty mask and go to an antique store. Here’s wishing you all a great week.

**SOLD** Edison 80 rpm Diamond Disc recording of “Mother’s Grave” by Maggie Andrews. Diamond Discs were Edison’s unique way of not getting sued for copying disc records once his cylinder records declined in popularity. Manufactured from 1912 to 1929, they are thicker than other disc records and measure approximately 10 inches across. Diamond Discs, at the time, could only be played on Edison Diamond Disc phonographs and the average steel phonograph needle would damage them. This 1920s disc is in good condition with minimal wear from age and use. Although aged and worn, it still makes sound. Swipe for a listen. Comes with paper sleeve. Sold as is. DM for purchase. $25 plus shipping.
