Show us your Webcor/Webster Chicago equipment!
As you might have guessed from my user name(which came from one of these machines) I have a soft spot for the ruged, stylish, and well engineered products of this brand. So I have started this thread to share(show off?) my collection,and give others the chance to do the same. http://i1095.photobucket.com/albums/...y/DSCN0803.jpg http://i1095.photobucket.com/albums/...y/DSCN0814.jpg http://i1095.photobucket.com/albums/...y/DSCN0828.jpg Here is my modest collection of Webcor/Webster Chicago gear. My first webcor product. http://i1095.photobucket.com/albums/...y/DSCN0807.jpg http://i1095.photobucket.com/albums/...y/DSCN0808.jpg http://i1095.photobucket.com/albums/...y/DSCN0809.jpg There were at least three colors this model came in including black(above), red(below), and tan tweed(which I regret not purchasing). My second W/C wire recorder the red one. http://i1095.photobucket.com/albums/...y/DSCN0804.jpg http://i1095.photobucket.com/albums/...y/DSCN0805.jpg http://i1095.photobucket.com/albums/...y/DSCN0806.jpg Both work well with no repairs on my part whatsoever. |
The only non tested wire recorder I have.

Feel free to to comment, and show us what you have. Tom C. |
Have you ever heard of a Webster Chicago Record player projector combo? I own one and haven't been able to find any information on it. I have a video slideshow of it on youtube.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeRS6gTkWQc Any information? |
I have a nearly pristine Webster-Chicago portable wire recorder that I'd love to sell. It's in the maroon colored portable case and has several reels of wire. If it has been used more than a couple of hours I'd be very surprised. Comes with manual, microphone, etc.

I'm afraid that I don't know the history of the company, and if I havent seen one of their products than it is new to me (as is that phono-projector combo, though I can tell you that that is probably from the 1930's, and that I've seen motion picture projectors with phonographs before)
Bob, I don't have the instruction manuals for any of my machines. If it is not too much trouble for you could you please scan your machines manual and email it to me? If I was not flat broke right now I'd be interested in buying your machine. Tom C. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7851/...1a5d98cd_n.jpgDSCN0814 by Tom Carlson, on Flickr |
Tom, how much do you think I should ask for my machine?
Right now it's at a friend's house; he said he might try to sell it on ebay. So the manual is with him. Next opportunity I will mention it, but honestly the manual is just a little folder, not much to it. |
I bought my wire units for around 30-35$ a piece at a meet and a back road Alabama junk shop respectively, so in your shoes I'd make the opening bid around 20-25$.
I still would like a scan of the manual, but if it is too much trouble for you then please don't bother. I'm sure I'll find one sooner or later. Tom C. |
