Bacigalupi

There's an idea, Rene: a thread on machines and boxes (or sleeves) from the same retailer!

 

I can contribute only two...and one of them is above...

Hmmm...  On further thought, I can add six more couples...  I'll start a thread after our granddaughter goes home this afternoon.

I was looking for a vitascope flyer and came across this Bacigalupi sales flyer I have..measures 12 x 14 each page..pretty big...also noted the NYC office...didn't remember it when I last posted on Bacigalupi items...

That's a wonderful flyer!

 

It's interesting to see that Bacigalupi was prepared to deliver the earliest version of the AT as of July 1, 1898.  I've never seen a specific date for its appearance, and I've always written "mid-1898" when referencing its introduction.  It was probably available in June on the East Coast.

 

Thanks for posting this.

Those are wonderful!  That's some serious advertising material, way beyond the usual. And during the era when he was still selling Columbia Graphophones.

Hi,

I know that interest in dictating cylinders is pretty low, but I recently acquired a few early Edison with a dealer label around the box by Peter Bacigalupi & Sons. It's the first time I had seen it. So, rather uncommon, I guess.

Because I got more than one, I am happy to share some of them - see "For Sale".
