Did I mention to this esteemed group that I saw a Sonora wood-arm phonograph
(one of their high-end machines from the 20s) in a recent episode of
Bewitched, the sit com starring the lovely Elizabeth Montgomery back in the
early 1960s.  ME TV rebroadcasts these, I Dream of Genie and others over the
air.   The phono was playing a record but I could not tell what the disk
was, and it was probably not the sound heard by the TV audience as the disk
spun.

TCM is running "Syncopation" (finishing in a few minutes, Pete Kelly's Blues
coming up next, later on it's the Gene Krupa story, Orchestra Wives etc).
And a portable windup was shown playing (chewing!) a Victor Home Recording.
