wonder if someone made a copy inspired by the photo? - though I think we would
have heard about it.

More importantly, are there competing bidders on this list? If someone want to
get hold of this for historical reasons rather than as a personal possession,
care needs to be taken that list members don't force the price up between them
by constantly counter-bidding. If no-one else is interested, I may consider
bidding with a view to finding a way for this to be preserved somehow. It's a
shame that the plexiglass clamp isn't part of the sale, but I'm sure one could
be fabricated.
My concern is that many on this list are at academic institutions and may take a
break from their email over the weekend.
Anyway, I'll keep an eye on the auction and see how it progresses. If the price
goes past my limit, which it's not far off now, I'm afraid it'll go elsewhere.
Regards,
John
As far as I was aware, the only example of this SFM version (a very early one)
was at Peter Fellgett's house and I was hoping this and other Ambisonics
memorabilia would eventually find a place in a museum somewhere. I have
contacted his family to ask if they still have this array. I certainly never
saw it dismantled and separate from the perspex collar as it is in the photo,
so maybe it is a different one. Apart from PBF's family, I cannot think who can
have it legitimately, unless Calrec had one (if so I never saw it in Hebden
Bridge).
regds,
Geoffrey
