Dave Dintenfass knows some guy. Also, the Library of Congress has a really
neat Edison transcription machine with a linear tracking arm and a Stanton 681.
I doubt they'd be willing to do transfers but they might already have done
transfers of the cylinder you're looking for.

Art Shifrin. He has a lot of custom-built cylinder playing stuff.
There's probably contact information at http://www.shifrin.net

Actually, I'm not; a guy wrote me about transferring some cylinders he owns to
CD for safekeeping. I'm looking for someone to pass him on to. Thanks to all;
I'll pass along your suggestions to him.

Peace,

Interesting! Especially that behemoth Marconi recorder. 1.5 meters/sec
can be heard indeed, the recording has a curious dynamics for the age.
I think the recording has been made early fifties, the "Painting the
Clouds with Sunshine" theme made me humming around for an hour :))

I have an old Schlumberger catalog with a perforated film sound
recorder described; now I've got curious about and tomorrow I'll dig
it out from my attic to see.

Also check out The North American Phonograph Company

Shawn Borri is still doing recordings with Edison cylinders.

(I have no affilation with him, I just have pictures taken by a friend
who saw him recording some recent shows with them!).

I'd love to see that! I didn't know Schumberger made any magfilm gear.
