Opera or Fireside? Let me think about it. ;-)
But seriously, yes.....for my first cylinder machine, 28 years ago, I picked an
Edison Standard A over a 4 clip Standard. It was pointed out to me that the
particular 4 clip was a much quieter machine, not to mention probably more
valuable as it was older than the Standard A. They were both the same price.
As I said, I picked the Standard A because it had the nice, large Edison banner.
BTW....my wife bought this for me as a wedding present 28 years ago.
