When this cylinder was recorded, Confederate & Union Civil War Veterans were in their 60's, 70's & 80's! They were younger than those Vets from WWII today [2011], my 90 y.o. father being one of them.

Great phonograph... I wouldn't reccommend refinishing... I've had a lot of luck with fine steel wool and a good wax like Briwax. It comes in a lot of different colors, i's easy to use and it saves the old finish.

Great tune! Im pretty envious of your 75. I've been wanting one for years too, but they dont seem to show up very often in Aus.

When I bought it, it was missing the 3 drawers, mandral, reproducer, and horn.

I hae the record, a black label Edison record, dated 1914 # 50195. One side has the Dixie Medley, theother side has the Infanta March.

Fwdstuck, Wonderful BA! Thank you. What a handsome machine, it doesn't look bad at all. Give that cabinet a rub-down with GoJo and it come right back to life I'll bet. Does the cylinder title spell Eps name with two p's? I have seen that elsewhere. Thanks again! Regards, J.

Thanks, and your welcome. It is spelled with 2p's. I have a diamond disc of the song too. And it is spelled with one p. I don't know about the gojo. It looks way worse in person than in video. Veneer chips, alligatored varnish. I've been hunting for a 75 for years. See them sometimes on ebay, but shipping is something else. I was willing to drive down to the orlando phonograph show to find one. I found this one in sep. at a flea market.
