ANTIQUE RADIO CLASSIFIED la as

EDITOR'S COMMENTS Reviewing the contents of this mont's issue

prompted a memory search. When had we been prophetic about the future value of conso.es in the grand scheme of radio collecting? Then Dave Crocker's drawing at right from his July 1989 article surfaced. Yes, Dave was the prophet way back then. He warned that those who ignored the potential future value of consoles did so at their own peril. As both the Estes and Harris auc-

tions attest, consoles have arrived — big time. What used to go beg-ging drew vigorous bidding. In fact, eleven quality consoles sold for over $1,000 each, totaling $42,000, which rapresented 30 percent of the Estes auction. Of course, "quality" is the optimum word here.

Buyers have to pick and choose for value, and they were in luck at the Estes auction which focused primarily on two quality collections — those of Joe Koester and Arlo Brakel. Together they offered a broad selection of cathedrals, Catalins and consoles, along with Amateur, battery and other tracitional sets. The consoles came largely from Joe Kcester's col-lection, which epitomized the unusual, scarce, and collectible — all aspects of a quality collection. Tom Harris Auctions also offered quality items

covering the full spectrum of collecting. We're hap-py to note that Harris is continuing its practice of two radio auctions a year, and we will report on the September event soon. In contrast to consoles, Charles Stadler's interest

in transistorized multiband portable radios is at the other end of the size spectrum. Charles article is even more narrowly focused on a sma I subset of these radios, namely the Patrolman Series. Read the photo captions carefully to realize the subtle differences among the sets. I understand an interest in such differences, as my own collection includes subtle variants in models. Coincidentally, the Indiana Historical Radio Soci-

ety's 33rd annual meet celebrated the 50th anniver-sary of the Regency TR-1 transistor radio. This 2-day event included an auction that yielded an im-pressive total of nearly $5,000. Transistors were also on Mal Fuller's mind when

he found that his Zenith Royal 3000-1 had a mixer transistor problem. Setting about repairing a defec-tive transistor would seem a stretch for most of us. but Mal tells us how to do it. As he says, good substitutes are hard to find, so here's hi; answer to the problem. In another repair article, Jerry Wielan i describes

a second chance he had at a General Motors Model 219, which he had previously turned down because of price and the fact that "it didn't look ight." Well,

his judgment proved correct. When the set later came to him for re- pair, he found that the cabinet had the wrong chassis in-stalled in it. gi b Jerry's story illustrates the kind of cre- ativity sometimes needed to make a functioning piece out of someone else's partial restoration. Photo Review is a good mix of European and

U.S. sets. U.S. sets include a Walton. two AC table sets, a Belmont chairside, and a Beco battery set. Two German crystal sets and an interesting Dutch battery set are also pictured.

MEET & AUCTION REPORT

Indiana Historical Radio Society 33rd Annual Meet

Kokomo, Indiana — April 30-May 1, 2004 CONTRIBUTED BY HERMAN GROSS

The Indiana Historical Radio Society (IHRS) held its 33rd an-nual spring meet at the Johan-fling Civic Center in Kokomo, Indiana, on April 30-May 1, 2004. The meet was well attended and members and visitors alike came, not only from Indiana and the contiguous states of Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky and Illinois, but also from such distant plac-es as South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Texas, Cali-fornia, and Oregon. In all, 122 families attended. The theme of this meet was

the 50th anniversary of the Re-gency TR-1 pocket transistor ra-dio. Especially significant to those of us in the Indiana group is that the TA-1 was developed and built in Indianapolis. Sever-al very interesting and extensive displays of TR-1 history and memorabilia were offered. The highlight of the meet was

the auction held Saturday at 1:00 P.M. Of particular interest was the very rare Atwater Kent 12C breadboard selling at $1,300. This was the Cadil-lac of Atwater Kent breadboards and less than 8,400 were manufactured. Who knows how many remain. Max Scott Auction Service moved 136 lots along

with ease, and proceeds amounted to $4,710. All prices have been rounded down to the dollar.

This Atwater Kent 12C, the highlight of the auction, sold for $1,300.

A wide variety of radios on preview before the auction.

A warning: Auction prices are not current values. Our selection of auction items is not necessarily complete. A listing such as this cannot adequately include the condition of cabinets, chassis, trans-formers. tubes. the operating status of the set. and the inclusion of incorrect, restored or replica com-ponents. etc. Auction prices are the result of the excitement of the auction process, the skill of the auctioneer and the specific interests of the partici-pants. Nevertheless, auction prices serve as use-ful references and as another element in the value determining process. The possibility of error al-ways exists, and if we are notified, corrections will be reported.

WITH THE COLLECTORS

Transistorized Multiband Portable Radios BY CHARLES STADLER

Radio collecting is such a broad field that most collectors home in on a particular special-ty. In Charles Stadler's case, he has chosen multiband portable radios. Here he describes the subtle variations in some Radio Shack's Realistic lines from the 1970s and 1980s. (Editor)

It is 50 years since the Re-gency TA-1 transistor radio was sold in 1954. This would defi-nitely make "antique" a proper term for those old transistor ra-dios. By the end of the 1960s, a decade and a half later, one would be hard pressed to find a tube radio, portable or table. The advantages of transistors had helped change the styles and designs of electronics. Smaller packages could easily accom-modate more bands and quality for lower costs. Looking through catalogs,

such as Montgomery Ward, Lafayette, and Radio Shack (Al-lied), provides a look at a wide range o portable radios available from a variety of sources. It was not hard to find radios with wide frequercy cover-age. A quick search through eBay shows that many of these radios are still available.

RADIO SHACK PATROLMAN SERIES

I like to collect multiband portable radios. Fur-

Figure 1. The first in the series of Patrolman 6 radios was this 12-756 from 1973. In addition to AM and FM, this radio tuned the High and Low VHF bands. the VHF Air band, and UHF (450-470 MHz).

thei, I like to find radios that belong to sets or series. One such series is the Radio Shack Patrol-ma l series. These radios featured VHF coverage in addition to AM or FM coverage. The first units — 12-528, 12-629, and the Patrolman Mini 12-622 —

(Continued on following page)

Figure 2. This Patrolman 6, a 12-760 from 1976. Fig() e 3. A restyled version of the 12-760, this was identical in appearance to the 12-756. Howev- 1977 12-750's tuning range was identical to the er. its UHF tuning range was extended to 512 MHz. 12-760.

Figure 4. The Patrolman CB-6, introduced in 1978, substituted the Citizens band for the Air band.

Figure 5. The Patrolman CB-60 (12-766) from 1980 added the Air band, and its UHF High band covered 108-174 MHz.

(Multiband Portables, continued)

appeared in the early 1970s. They were pocket radios which featured the VHF High band. Over the years, bands were added. starting

with the Patrolman 3 (3 bands with UHF added) and the Patrolman 10 (10 bands — shortwave to UHF coverage) in 1974, and ending with the Patrolman SW-60 (6 bands) introduced in 1984 and shown in catalogs until 1990. The Patrolman 6 series appeared in catalogs

for almost two decades. The first Patrolman 6, the 12-756, shown in Figure 1, appeared around 1973. It featured, in addition to AM and FM coverage, Low and High VHF bands, VHF Air band, and UHF (450-470 MHz). The next version, the 12-760. appeared around

1976. As Figure 2 shows, this radio had the same appearance, the only discernible difference be-ing an expanded UHF coverage to 512 mHz. In 1977, a restyled version, the 12-750. was intro-duced, but with the same coverage. This radio is shown in Figure 3. For the 1978 version, the Air band was re-

placed with the Citizens band. This version, shown in Figure 4, was called the CB-6. Introduced in

Figure 7. The 1973 Astronaut 6 (12-5060), upper middle photo, has a case style similar to the Patrolman 6 but it has shortwave rather than UHF coverage. It carried the Allied Radio Shack (APS)/Allied nameplate. The lower photo shows the 1974 Model 12-2060 where the nameplate reads "Realistic."

1980. the Patrolman CB-60, shown in Figure 5, incladed the Air band and a VHF High band, giving a wide 108-174 MHz spread. Introduced around 1984, the final version was

coverage was replaced with shortwave coverage from 6 to 18 MHz This model last appeared in the 1990 catalog. The Patrolman-6 radios are more than just good-

looking units. They are rugged and ref able radios. The back is easily removed so controls and switch-es can be cleaned and lubricated. The cases are easy to clean - Windex and Novus eas ly give good results. One feature that greatly assists tuning is the inclusion of continuous fine tuning av3ilable to all bands. A fine tuning knob centered in the main tuning knob gives a gear reduction of approximately 4011 which makes tweaking not only possible, but useful.

SIMILAR SETS

Around 1973. Allied-Radio Shack introduced the Astronaut 6, 12-5060, shown in Figure 7. The case style is quite similar to the Patrolmen 6, but the main differences are shortwave coverage on the Astronaut, but no UHF coverage. In - 974, the 12-2060. shown also in Figure 7, replaced the Astro-naut 6. This version has the Realistic logo rather than the Allied logo on the case. Other similar styles to the Patrolman 6 are the

DX-60 and DX-66 radios. Two versions of the DX-60 are shown in Figure 8. An example of the DX-66

Figure 10. The Patrolman 9 has a taller case to accommodate its 9-band dial scale.

is shown in Figure 9. While having a similar profile to the redesigned Patrolman, they have less chrome, and they covered shortwave, thus the DX designation. (The DX-60 also covers the CB band, while the DX-66 covers the Air band.) Similar styles to the original Patrolman-6 are the Patrolman-9, shown in Figure 10, and the Patrolman-CB9, with a taller case to handle the added three bands. Since these multiband radios cost in the neigh-

torhood of $100 when new, it is quite probable that tne original owners took better than average care of the radios. While they cannot compete with scanners or synthesized receivers, these sets do work quite well within the limits of analog broad-coverage receivers.

General Motors Model 219 The Second Chance Radio

BY JERRY WIELAND

Collectors frequently have second thoughts about a rejected radio. Seldom do they get a second chance to confirm the wisdom of their decisions. as Jerry Wieland did. (Editor)

About a year ago while visiting one of my favorite antique shops, the owner asked if I would like to see an interesting radio. I had purchased a few from him so he was hoping to sell me another. He had just unloaded his truck and did not have his new find on display yet. It appeared to be a small table radio with a door, like a smoking stand. The cabinet was in nice condition. When I

opened the door, I saw a panel with three metal escutcheons, as shown in Figure 1. The left escutcheon was labeled "General Electric" at the top and "Volume" at the bottom. The right escutcheon was the same, except it was la-

Figure 2. The General Motors Model 219 with its door in the open (down) position. The Model 219 found in the antique shop had a chassis from a General Electric Model K-60 installed. (Photo cred-it: John Slusser, -Collector's Guide to Antique Radios." 5th Ed.)

beled "Tuning" at the bottom. The center one was labeled only "GM" and "General Motors." It appeared to be a tuning indicator with two pointers at the center of the opening. The vol-ume and tuning windows had rotating disks behind the escutcheons. The center window had none. There were three knobs, a small wooden one .n the center and two phenolic ones on either side. I could not see the chassis from any angle.

Looking at the bottom of the cabinet revealed only a speaker facing down with no baffle. I did see a small metal plate attached to the cabinet with the Genera: Motors name and model num-ber 219. The price was too high for me, and it didn't look right. I passed it up. By my next visit, it was gone. Figure 2 shows a GM Model 219.

THE SECOND CHANCE BEGINS

I received a phone call a year later from the shop owner asking ift would repair a radio for one of his customers. When I went to pick it up, the GE/GM radio was waiting for me. Now I had a second chance to find out more about this strange item. The first order of business was to get a good

look at the chassis. The only way to do this was to remove the cabinet top. Seven screws had to be removed to release the top. They were machine screws, rather than wood screws, mating to threaded brackets attached to the cabinet sides. I could now see the chassis top

12

but had to unscrew four more wood screws to release a board to which the chassis was mounted. The knobs also had to be removed. The speaker was hardwired to the chassis so I had to unscrew it also. By tilting the chassis one way and the speaker the other, both could be removed. It was a tight fit. The chassis, shown in Fig-

ures 3 and 4, had six tubes and a label identifying it as a GE K-60. The schematic for a GM 219 shows seven tubes. I could not find a schematic for a GE K-60 on the Internet. Looking at the back of the

control panel confirmed that the panel had been reworked to accept the GE chassir... The two GE escutcheon holes were crudely gouged out and two new control shaft holes drilled. The GM escutcheon and the shaft hole were facto-ry-made. I bet the GM 219 chassi:; used the center escutcheon as the tuning .ndicator. I could see two other partial shaft rides for the GM chassis in the area now occur,ied by the two GE escutcheons. My original suspicions about this radio not looking right were con-firmed.

Figure 3. A top view of the GE K-60 chassis.

THE REPAIR BEGINS

Even though the radio was not original, it still warranted repair. The chassis was mounted to a wooden panel by three machine screws. A fourth was missing. Once the chass.s had been removed, I could see a rather busy maze, as shown in Figure 4. Reworks had been made in numerous places. Some wax droppings and a power resistor burned in half indcated heat damage. There is no ventilation in this cabinet, and the chassis bottom is sealed try the wood-en mounting board. I suspected nal trapped heat over the years had done considerable

Figure 4. The bottom view of the chassis shows the crammed in components.

damage to the components. I performed my usual power transformer

check (it passed) and tube testing (the 80 recti-fier had an open filament). I decided to reduce the heat by replacing the 80 with two silicon diodes. I left the tube in the socket for originality (although its not likely anyone will see it). I did extensive component checking before apply-ing any power with the tubes inserted and fcund the following problems:

• A dead four section electrolytic capacitor (all sections gone)

• Three dead bypass capacitors • The burned power resistor and its series mate that also looked crispy

• Two grid cap wires that had cracked insula-tion and were close to shorting

• A ripped speaker cone • An cpen power switch on what appeared to be the tone control (center control)

• Cracked and close-to-shorting line cord • Bad rubber insulation on numerous wires

It took some time to repair all these prob-lems. I was able to clean the power switch contacts. Allen Bradley was nice enough to

design the back cover so it could be pried off to expose the switch contacts and the pot mechanism. A good cleaning fixed the switch and probably helped the pot operation. This pot/switch assembly was a rather elegant design. I guessed at the power re-

sistor values. They were used as a voltage divider for grid biasing. I found a 4-section electrolytic capacitor in my parts bin that I was able to mount with the aid of an extra chassis hole I drilled. A long terminal strip also was added to help stabilize wiring.

TESTING AND FINISHING

After repairing all that looked (Continued on following page)

13

(Second Chance Radio, continued) suspect, I plugged in the tubes and slowly increased the line voltage. I didn't expect much but heard static. A twist of the tuning capacitor shaft revealed a few stations. The volume control was very intermittent

and the radio occasionally went dead when the chassis was moved. I was able to squirt clean-er in the back of the volume control by opening a gap between the rear plate and the control body with a screwdriver. The intermittent was difficult to find. It was in

an IF transformer mounted in a metal can mounted to the chassis wall. Some disassem-bly was required to remove the transformer so I could take it apart and separate the wires that were shorting. Not a fun job. This chassis lay-out left a lot to be desired. Another functional test revealed stable oper-

ation. I peaked the AF and IF and got good performance on the AM broadcast band with a clip lead antenna. While examining the cabi-net, I noticed metal strips mounted under the leg stretchers. A bottom view of the cabinet is shown in Figure 5. These four strips were connected in series

with wires that routed through holes in the cabinet legs. A wire was routed up through one of the legs into the cabinet. I assumed this was the antenna lead. When I connected it to the radio antenna input, reception was very good. I cleaned the cabinet, mounted the chassis

and speaker, connected the antenna, and de-clared it restored. Something had to be done about the useless center escutcheon. I dis-

cussed it with the shop owner, and we decided to remove the escutcheon and cover the hole with a decorative molding. This radio represents a good case of "Let the

Buyer Beware."

"Bad" Trans-Oceanic Transistors Work Again! BY MAL FULLER

Repairing defective transistors may seem impossible, but Mal Fuller tells us how. (Editor)

My focus in the radio hobby leans towards AC-powered radios of the 1920s and 1930s. But, recently I was offered a Zenith Royal 3000-1 Trans-Oceanic for a price I could not refuse. Though in nearly mint condition, only the FM worked. "That's common," I was told by several radio

buddies. The problem is usually either the RF amplifier, the oscillator, or the mixer transistor in the AM "front end." "Good luck finding replacements" they added. With the benefit of a Zenith service manual, I

found that in the AM front end, there are seven test points, easily accessible without any disas-sembly. Test point #7 in the collector supply of the mixer transistor was 0 volts instead of -6.7 volts. I turned the radio off, removed the mixer

transistor and repowered the radio. Presto, the correct voltage appeared. A shorted transistor, I thought. I like to check transistors with an ohmmeter.

si4 ma,

Figure 1. A bottom view of one of the transistors used in the Zenith Royal 3000. From left to right. the leads are emitter, base, case ground and collector. Note that the case ground pin has been bent over so that it will not make contact with the socket.

As many of you know, a few forward and reverse checks on the emitter, base and collector, and a bad (or good) transistor can usually be identified. I looked for the collector-to-emit-ter short I expected to find. In-stead. I found only normal read-ings on the transistor's three elements!

YOU DON'T SUPPOSE...

Whenever I'm puzzled I scratch my head. After my head was well scratched, a "you don't suppose" idea came to me. Many transistor types have three leads, but, as you can see in Figure 1, these transis-tors have four leads. The addi-tional lead connects the tran-sistor's metal case to chassis ground. Figure 2 is a closeup of the AM tuner section of the Figure 3. Mal's Zenith Royal 3000-1 Trans-Oceanic.

Figure 2. This view of the radio's AM tuner chassis shows the three transistors in their sockets.

Royal 3000-1 and shows the three transistors used there. A test with my ohmmeter revealed that the

collector of the mixer transmitter was shorted to the metal case of the transistor! With fingers crossed. I bent the ground lead over so it would not engage with the transistor socKet. I put the transistor back and turned on the radio. Noth-ing. But, when I went to test point #7 the —6.7 volts were there. Another "you don't suppose" thought came

to me. I removed the oscillator transistor and cut to the chase. Sure enough, while not a dead short in this instance, there was a resis-

tance reading between the case of the transistor and the collector. I bent that transis-tor's ground lead over in the same fashion as I have already described and plugged it back in. This time, when I powered the radio, it worked flawlessly on all bands. Of course, I can't say how

many of the shielded transis-tors that Zenith used have failed in this manner. But, I thought it worth sharing since two out of the three transistors in my set's AM front end were so afflicted. Good substitutes for these

transistors are elusive. Most, I understand, will at best cause some degradation of perfor-mance, likely, in 1L6 fashion, on the higher frequencies. With the shields disconnected I can find no problem — all bands are right on frequency. Fur-

ther, everything about the Royal 3000-1 con-stitutes a shield! Hope this is a help to fans of this and perhaps other Zenith all-transistor models.

ZENITH MODEL 9S232A — This 9-tube Zenith "Walton" radio was found at a local estate sale for $40, and the family was happy to get rid of it. Turns out that this is a very unusual set, as it doesn't have motorized tuning. After some research, I found that, in early 1938, Zenith was having problems with the tuning motors, so they eliminated motorized tuning altogether: hence, the "A" at the end of the model number.

PHILCO MODEL PT-25 — This small 5-tube "Transitone," manufactured in 1939, has a Bakelite cabinet. It measures 8 1/4 " in length. (Carl D. Sutton — Ironton, OH)

BELMONT MODEL 671 — I have done major work on this "restyled" console radio-phono. I removed the top, removed the chassis, and cut the cabinet down to 17 inches. Then I cut holes for the dial and knobs in the top, reinstalled the grille, and refin-ished the cabinet It now makes a nice, working, chairside radio. (Howard Brammell — Emporia, KS)

AUCTION REPORT

Estes Auctions Burbank, Ohio — February 21, 2004

REPORTED BY RAY CHASE

This Estes Auction presented the collections of Joe Koester and Dr. Arlo Brakel with other additions. Highlights included many exceptional Zeniths, such as eight shutter-dial sets: a host of Scotts (about 13 in all): a nice collection of Catalins: as well as high-end novelty sets, Ham gear, and some very nice Edison cyl-inder machines. There was more than the usual number of better consoles, including the seldom seen Zenith Stratosphere that sold for $7,000 in spite of need-ing a fair amount of work. In addition, there was a very clean Philco 38-690, a 22-tube, 2-chas-sis set, that sold for $900. Several of the Scott consoles

were truly outstanding, and al-though they brought good pric-es, they did not command the prices set by comparable Scotts in sales several years ago. For the Zenith collec-tor the offerings were outstanding — eleven Ze-nith sets sold for over $1,000 each, totalling $33,100 or nearly 25 percent of the total sale proceeds. As always, it was a distinct pleasure to see and touch all these fine collectibles even if one was not in a position to buy them. There was a good mix of other radio items as

well, so there was something for nearly everyone. As often is the case, many additional items were coming in on the Saturday morning before the auction started. The sale consisted of over 600 lots and yielded nearly $140,000, not counting the 5 percent buyers premium which is not included in

The main auction room was

With the crowd added to the equipment, the room was packed to overflowing. Approximately 780 individual lots consisting of single and multiple items crossed the auction block to head for new homes by day's end.

At nearly the same level, a bid of $375 took a green Emerson 74, while $360 was enough for a nifty Hammond Silvertone clock radio. Just clearing the $300 mark was a Hopalong Cassidy 4411.

ONE FREE 20-WORD AD for subscribers in each issue; additional words are 29c each. See details below. Classified ads sent by mail, fax, e-mail or by any other method must be received (no: just postmarked!) by Noon Eastern Time on the classified

ad deadline date to guarantee inclusion in the current issue. Late ads are held for the following issue. Please enclose correct payment with all ads. Cash is OK for small amounts. (Canadian and other foreign advertisers, please see 'Payment" on opposite page for methods.) "Free words" cannot be accumulated from month to month; free words must be requested when ad is submitted.

Faxed & e-mailed ads: Please see additional information on opposite page.

When including ads with other A.R.C. correspondence, write the ads on a separate piece of paper. Include SUB# with ad. Ads may be sent in advance; but, write each ad on a separate piece of paper and indicate the month (or successive months up to your subscription expiration, 12-months, maximum) you want the ad to run.

To minimize our typing errors: Please write legibly. Use both capital and small letters. Do not use a dash between words.

Carefully write the following numbers and letters (especially in model numbers) since some can look alike; for example 1, I and I (the number one, the capital i and the small L.) Also: 0,0 . o. Q and D; v. rand n; 6. band G; V. U, u. v and Y; A and R: 5. S

and s; 2, Z and z. We try to correct spelling errors, so when using an uncommon word or manufacturer which we might mistake as a more common word or manufacturer, note it so that we do not "correct" it. Editor's annotations are in [brackets] in ads.

Advertising is accepted only for early items related to radio, communication. etc. All items must be described fairly: reproductions, reprints and not-original items must be so identified. Advertisers must agree to respond promptly to

inquiries and orders, to resolve problems promptly if the buyer is not satisfied, and to comply with a buyer's refund request on unaltered returned items.

Classified ads must have a standard heading such as WANTED. FOR SALE, FOR TRADE. FOR SALE/TRADE. SERVICES. MESSAGE, HELP, AUCTION, MEET, FREE. This heading is the only bold or all-capitalized words allowed in the ad. Capitalize only manufacturer names, model names. etc. This standard ad format makes scanning the ads easier.

Before writing your ad, please look over the ads in a recent issue of ARC., and try to write your ad in the same style. Full name (or company name) and address is rezired in all classified ads; we will add it if you forget.

The publisher reserves the right to edit ads without notification to the advertiser and to reject ads for any reason. Names

other than the advertiser will be edited out of ads. Ads with non-radio-related items will be returned or edited unless the non-radio-

related items are for trade of radio-related items, or they are incidental to and appear at the end of an otherwise acceptable ad. The publisher is not responsible for errors due to illegibly written ads or for any other reason. See also Publishing Rights on opposite page.

Clubs: Since club activities receive free coverage on the Corning Radio Events pages, the free 20 words may not be used for club activity ads. A discount on display advertising is available for clubs.

Vintage Radio & Phonograph Society Convention 2004

Thirty Years Celebration- 1974-2004

So what does an organization do to celebrate their 30th year'? The Vintage Radio SE Phonograph Society 1VRPS I decided to do it in style: Itom November 12th through 141h. at its 29th annual cons ention, the members will witness three live auctions. 2 silent auctions. a contest iii some ot the finest antique radios, phonographs and related equipment ever assembled, technical sessions, a flea market, an awards banquet and entertainment of the quality befitting a 30th anniversary celebration.

Door prizes. raffles and very nice gift to each paid attendees await those making the journey to Mesquite. Texas (near Dallas) this fall. Read our Sound Wines newsletter or on the VRPS website: www.vrrivorg for any additional information on events.

But wait. someone will surely ask sv hat is the banquet entertainment we are so proud of 1 would like to he able to announce ti sou that the Vocal Majority, an internationally known singing group in Dallas. will be there to perform. Well. I cannot, as you see. the

Majority consist of 200. very talented male singing artists. If this group were all to attend. we would have no mom left for the banquet guests to sit HOWeVer. we ha, e done the next best thing. A barbershop quartet from the Vocal Majority has agreed to perform for us. as the evening entertainment. This award winning group is known as the Dallas Blend.

But, even that is not enough. James 'Rick' Wilkins, nationally known phonograph historian and collector, will be recording several of

the songs on was cy tinders using equipment circa 1893. We boldly venture to think that in this age of digital recordings, this will be the first such records produced on was in this century' In fact, the last known recordings of this kind, were done at the 1978 VRPS convention. Mr. Wilkins also did those recordings using the same 11 I year old equipment.

Plan to join us. for a weekend of fun and entemonment and witness history in the making. We do expect a full house, so make y our plans now to join us November 12-14, 2604.
