On the special machines Edison started the serial numbers with 1001, like the
Amberola 60 and 80. With regards to the number known you have to rely upon
other collectors to provide serial numbers and with rare machines this is

Ugly and clunkyness of the A N, was part of the beauty of the History of it.
It was never intended to be put on display in your living room (Quite a
frightening thought), but rather designed to be rugged, and dependable and

One thing in the Frow book I remember is he cites internal memos as to how many
they were making at one point, I think it was 15/ week in late 1917 (could be
