The highest Amberola 30 I recorded is just below 344000. The highest Amberola 50 I have recorded is just over 43000. The highest Amberola 75 in my data mine is just over 21000. So, Steve Medved's reproducer number is in the ballpark for production figures... Regards to all, Al

Thanks Al, that gives an idea of how many of each were made. Do you think they shared serial numbers? I would guess they did based on the serial numbers you provided which I really appreciate. I asked Ron D and he said deluxe Edison Disc machines started with serial number 1000. That

Hello Andy, The nickel plated Diamond C was made for about two years. Your serial number would not be too high as the same reproducer went on the 30 50 and 75. Amberola 137 has Diamond C 307 and a lot of 30's were made. Al gave the high serial numbers he had. Regarding reproducers I

Hello Tony, I have three serial numbers for these machines and one detailed photos from one machine that an extremely nice person took for me. Information is as rare as the machines themselves. I hope other people with knowledge will reply. The 80 was Edison's way to use up old parts.

Hello Bruce, What is the serial number of the reproducer on your machine and do you have a N-56 for it? I am trying to get an idea of serial numbers of the Diamond B reproducers from 1914. Steve Date: Sun, 25 Aug 2013 19:47:54 + From: bruce78...@comcast.net To:

I would have to agree with Steve Medved. Very likely 100 or less were made of each model, the 60 and the 80. Steve has seen more of them than I have. If I had research priveledges with the Site the 60 and 80 would be something to look into. I don't believe they had their own manuals but

I would just like to say Thank You to all for sharing this information especially Al and Steve. I have always thought that we are only Care Takers of the machines we own and I think our job is to keep or make any machine as original as it can be and play as well as it can and enjoy it!! Alongside
