Does anyone know of anywhere that you can still get blank wax phonograph cylinders please? I know that they are still available, but I've not been able to find anyone who supplies them. Any help greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

Peter.

Paul Morris from Exeter makes them. Some of you may remember the phonograph demonstration and talk he gave at Harpenden a year or two ago. He usually has a stall at the NVCF.

You can contact him at: musicurio [at] yahoo [dot] co [dot] uk
