Re: Thorens Question; Music Box Repro Discs
By Jack Kane
Terry: Good talking with you on the phone last night and hearing your 28" Kalliope -- magnificent! As I told you (and for anyone else's info) Barry can't (at this time at least) make repro discs much larger than a 22" disc. Wade Jenkins may be able to do this -- I know he makes 24" Polyphons and the master disc for those is pretty large, perhaps he can do a repro of the 28" Kalliope if you can find some kind soul with others to copy. His phone is: (617) 826-2170. He is one heck of a nice guy.
For the Thoren's question -- I think you can get a Thorens (Reuge) 4.5" movement new from both Nancy Fratti and by watching the Antique Trader (there's one for sale in the Antique Trader I just got today as a matter of fact.)

P.S. Barry Johnson isn't on the internet.
