This is a wonderful archive of the lore and science of recorded sound. This 88 page book is printed on glossy paper 8” x 11”and contains over 40 full color plates which show the equipment and documentation for the disk cutting machinery. Some serious SF Bay Area old timers devoted to preserving the lathes put this book together for all those who relish lathe lore ! Fans of vinyl, audio, music, and history can enjoy this book. Limited Edition 2005

$25 USD plus $5. handling/postage= $30.00 USD

I will accept Paypal payments so email me and I will invoice you through Paypal and then send you this beautiful book.

I was pleased to attend the July dinner/meeting of the Hollywood Sapphire Group in Burbank. I was the guest of Don King and was able to meet many oldtimers with great stories about lathes. There is a "tube table" for those of you who do not actually cut but use valves. I was able to show them all Robert Morrison's book "Disk Recording 1930-1960". Many of the group were able to get their own copy of the book from me and the room fell silent as they all began turning the pages and looking at the new color pictures of lathes, cutter heads, and equipment specs. I had to take the books to the group because most of these guys are not on the internet, old school all the way. Check their site:
