Phonoservice, Book of the Gramophone & Phonograph, A Comtemporary View, 1898-1913 by Barry A. Wiiliamson. Published, in 2004, by Phonoservice, 157 Childwall Valley Road, Liverpool, L16 1LA. Older enthusiasts will remember Barry Williamson as the proprietor of Phonoservice, which supplied spare parts and needles for wind-up gramphones and phonographs (who sadly is no longer with us). Barry was a wealth of information having been associated with mechanical music collecting for many years. Latterly he published this book and another (which I have listed separately). The book contains listings for records by famous recording artistes of the day and advertisements for machines. 68 pages overall in a soft cover (no marking or annotations inside or out). An interesting and informative insight into the machines of the day. A scarce book to obtain.
