These Edison oddities are very interesting. I have a Fireside with the
stenciling like you see on a Model A or B Standard. Also, I have a Model D home
with the earlier pin stripping and a Model B case. To me, these are more
interesting than the usual cookie cutter types.

{margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;}#yiv6209500941 I thought it would be an F,
Edison used the F to get rid of a lot of left over parts. I have seen a Home
with a Triumph ID plate and a Home serial number, and during 1908 for a period
of time Edison made the B, C and D all at the same time so you see a lot of
variety. I have seen a Standard D with a B ID plate and the tall B case, a
maroon Gem with the block GEM decal, along with other variety and factory
defects.

Subject: Re: [Phono-L] Edison E I re-looked at my standard with the changed ID
tag. It now appears that the letter which looked like an "E"on further
inspection is actually an "F". The machine has a small top-mount reproducer
ring. This fits with the 2/4 gearing and cygnet horn. One wonders if original
buyers were ever sophisticated enough to recognize the differences between
models with all the factory changes. However, I would assume they would have
known what they wanted given the options of 2 and 4 minute reproduction.Art

The picture that Randy posted looks identical to the Model F pictured in the
Frow book. It says the E had a side mount carriage arm with large opening for
a Model N reproducer, whereas the F had top mount carriage arm with a small
opening for C, H, R, or S reproducers. It says the Model E had a straight
paneled horn with a front mount crane, whereas the Model F had a cygnet horn
with a back mount crane bracket.
Also, the Standard Models D, E, and F all had both 2 and 4 minute gearing.
HOWEVER, on the Model E, the mechanism was blocked to keep it in 4-minute mode
all the time. If Randy found it was stuck in 4-minute mode, this would support
the E nameplate. Otherwise, everything else points to a Model F. Of course,
you never know what really happened at the Edison factory.

Subject: [Phono-L] Edison E I'm selling this for a lady that recently lost her
house in a fire with no insurance. This was in storage and spared. It's an
Standard E . It has the 2&4 conversion and a new H reproducer. The motor was
cleaned and new spring installed in 2004. The base of the Cygnet horn has been
restored. This comes with a cylinder cabinet, all in excellent condition
(except for the upper half of the horn). All proceeds go to helping this lady
get back on her feet. The chrome Cygnet horn support is also new. It plays
beautifully. I can send more pics upon request. A phono friend thought it would
go between 7 to 900 dollars. Let me know if interested. ThanksRandy Larson
