“Nice machine Scott, what is the serial number?  I would bet it is up above 
790000.  Am I correct?”
 
Of course you are correct! Serial number: 820852
 
What made you think it would be above 790000? Have you seen or heard of other 
2/4 minute D ICS Standards? THAT IS BECAUSE AL KNOWS HIS EDISON PHONOGRAPHS 
BETTER THAN I KNOW MY REPRODUCERS.
 
Steve, the machine only came with the H reproducer (sn #A679790), recording 
tube and horn. No recorder or “C” reproducer.
 
Regards,
Scott SCOTT, THANKS,
THE H REPRODUCER WAS FROM AFTER JULY 1909 AS THE FIRST K WAS AROUND A582,000.  
IT APPEARS EDISON ASSIGNED SERIAL NUMBER BLOCKS TO THE SMALL TOP REPRODUCERS AS 
SOME D MACHINES HAVE A SPREAD ON THE C AND H REPRODUCERS.   I APPRECIATE 
KNOWING THE MACHINE PLAYS IN 4 MINUTE, IT APPEARS IT WAS USED FOR ENTERTAINMENT 
CYLINDERS.  EDISON HAS SO MUCH VARIETY, ONE OF THE TRIUMPH MODEL G'S THAT WAS 
SUPPOSED TO BE 4 MINUTE ONLY PLAYS IN BOTH.  NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU LEARN ABOUT 
EDISON THERE IS ALWAYS MORE. STEVE M
