Phonograph Exhibits, Displays & On-Line Collections

 

Phonographs Not in PhonoAvenue Museums

 

Three phonograph subgalleries of phonographia out of scope for PhonoAvenue Museums

1) On-Line Phonograph Collections

2) Phonograph Displays as a temporary exhibit

3) Phono-Sightings (one-offs) observed by Friends of the Phonograph as part of another display (e.g., a phonograph in a 1910's historic house, period room in a museum, etc.).





 


 

On-Line Collections

 

Multiple on-line collections exist across the Internet. Phonographia has identified some but until there is a composite list updated by a definitive source Phonographia's list will try to be maintained by also including links suggested by other sites with identification of sources for those links (e.g., Montana Phonograph Company Favorite's).
