Dear Larry:
 
I would love to have a copy of Orville's list and am especially interested in 
what he called his frankenphono.  Please feel free to contact me off list.  
Orville White was diagnosed with a brain tumor and left us in 1969 or 1970 if 
my memory is correct.
 
Many thanks for adding this to the history of collecting.  I would bet that 
the list posted on this email forum would be greatly enjoyed by all.  Today we 
see many items that are "original" but are really products of those early 
collectors.  Few people today even know what a Frick's Freak horn is.  Sadly they 
still appear on eBay as "original" though the Bond-O seams in the old peach 
can tin has started to separate and one wonders how many good cylinders have 
been ruined by his "Dual Speed Styli?"
 
Kindest Regards to All,
 
Al
