UH-OH, have I been taken? I was told that my Edison C-1 is one of six
known. According to the known serial numbers mine is the latest making it
the last (accounted for) Diamond Disc machine. I sincerely hope that is not
the case.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If I collected Gems on a large scale,
it would be unusual to have. One dead give away that the paint is not
original to the date of manufacture is the lid. Notice the flathead nails
on the edges to hold down the glue failure? Near the nails are gouges that
Yes, you have been taken, you should sell your C-1 to me for $1200 dollars and
consider yourself lucky as it does not have nearly the paint job of that GEM

Can/would someone on the list please measure the diameter of the silk linkage
on a Diamond Disc reproducer with a micrometer and tell me what the measurement
is? Thanks!

Hello all
Sadly, I cracked one of my favorite cylinders tonight, and I am hoping someone
can help me find a replacement. It is Edison 2 minute number 10185 The Market
on Saturday Night sung by Ada Jones. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Steve, I agree completely and hope for collectors interested in these
machines that at least a few more will be found. The thing that supports the
'few' is that they were made for only a year (more like 10 months), were
very expensive and a good estimate of orginal production numbered about 200
Those d#$n 2 minute wax cylinders... you could crack one by looking at it wrong
or thinking about playing it. I love indestructibles...
