Re: [Phono-L] Edison Army /Navy DD
What a super machine that is. I've seen another that had better paint but this one looks like it's really been there. To me this has artifact beauty. The wear and tear is honest and nobody tried to 'touch it up'. It looks like it could suvive sending by UPS too. It wouldn't take much to talk myself into one..I'd 'have' to find a place for it.

Re: [Phono-L] Edison Army /Navy DD
On the special machines Edison started the serial numbers with 1001, like the Amberola 60 and 80. With regards to the number known you have to rely upon other collectors to provide serial numbers and with rare machines this is normally not possible. I am still looking for O reproducer information on reproducers with serial numbers below 5000. Steve ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org

[Phono-L] Edison Army /Navy DD
I really like my Army/Navy machine and would think $800 for a complete example in good shape would be a good price. I have owned three since I started collecting. The last one was purchased from Peter and it went to a Portland friend. I remember reading a story about Edison donating one to be used on an air ship. The first time the air ship docked, the Edison was left behind to reduce weight. I own three Diamond Disks, an A-250, a long play console, and the Army/Navy machine. If I could keep only one, it would be the Army/Navy machine. All examples that I have seen have been army green,like mine. Has anyone seen a blue machine?

I think Charles McCarn has a blue one - see YouTube Video Old Phonograph Heaven at the 1:54-1:57 mark in the video...

Re: [Phono-L] Edison Army /Navy DD
I agree with Jerry. We like our A N model for its scarcity and history. We found ours for about $800 with the military company's insignia stenciled on the lid. It was complete and in nice condition. We sold the one we had before it for about half that price , but it was not complete and looked more like it had been through a war. -Scott Denise Corbett -Original Message- From: phono-l-boun...@oldcrank.org [mailto:phono-l-boun...@oldcrank.org] On Behalf Of DeeDee Blais Sent: Friday, May 27, 2011 4:05 PM To: phono-l@oldcrank.org Subject: [Phono-L] Edison Army /Navy DD I really like my Army/Navy machine and would think $800 for a complete example in good shape would be a good price.

[Phono-L] Edison Army-Navy DD
Anybody got parts/pieces for an Edison Army-Navy DD? I know Stitt - that's all there is to one - or anybody got a complete one for sale? thanks, Darrell ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
Re: [Phono-L] Edison Army-Navy DD
Darrell, I saw a rather distressed collection years ago where someone sawed off the legs of an A-100 - came close to the correct size and all. :-) Talk to Stu Marsh ( durium...@aol.com ), he has a very nice Army-Navy in his collection. Maybe he can help you with any questions you have.
