Thank-you Al! A stated, mine is H43050 which, by your information, would place it early after release of the new style cabinet and within the range specified Ron

By H52251 the black banner has been used and the red is history. I have seen a seller on eBay with a refinished Home B cabinet using a modern red banner decal declare the machine to be an "all original rare and highly desirable red banner Home." Again, this makes me want to scream at the computer... Regards, Al PS: The 'New Style Cabinet' came in just before 41000. So, about 12,000 red banner long case Home As were made. -----Original Message----- From: Michael F.

While we're at it gang, I'd love to know the range of serial numbers within which the early red banner (originally placed on the lid) appeared on the front of the Home case. Michael K.

The Edison Phonograph Monthly announced the end of the banner decals on all models in the September 1906 issue. Taking into account the set-up for that issue occurring in August, about the closest I can estimate is that the Home lost the banner decal around serial No.210,000 or a bit earlier depending on how long the change had been in effect when it was announced in the EPM that "...all models are now being sent out..." with the new decal. A safe range would probably be between 205,000 and 210,000. >> >> >> George P. >> >> >> >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Steven Medved <[email protected]> >> To: phono-l <[email protected]>; phonolist <[email protected]> >> Sent: Sat, Dec 15, 2012 10:25 pm >> Subject: [Phono-L] Any idea around what serial number the banner Home case was dropped? >> >> >> >> >> >> >> That is what I meant to ask.
