EXCELLENT EDISON SUITCASE HOME PHONOGRAPH:
$750.00

EXCEPTIONAL LATE PRODUCTION EDISON “SUITCASE “ HOME. SERIAL NUMBER 41244 ; MANUFACTURED IN JUNE 1901. HAS THE SOMEWHAT SCARCE LATE PRODUCTION MANDREL WITH THE “ RING” MACHINED INTO THE BARREL.

PULLED FROM AN ATTIC AND IS IN ABSOLUTELY ORIGINAL CONDITION ; EXCEPT FOR A REPLACED BELT AND THE ORIGINAL TO THE MACHINE LATE AUTOMATIC REPRODUCER ( SN 207562) HAVING BEEN REBUILT BY WYATT MARKUS. IT CURRENTLY HAS A MICA DIAPHRAGM SINCE THE REPLACEMENT GLASS DIAPHRAGM BROKE ( POSSIBLY DUE TO THE FRIGID WEATHER) DURING RETURN SHIPPING FROM WYATT. THE REPRODUCER WAS RETURNED TO WYATT AND WE AGREED TO USE MICA TO AVOID A REPEAT OF THE GLASS BREAKING. SOUNDS ABOUT AS GOOD AS ONE WOULD EXPECT FROM AN AUTOMATIC.

CONDITION IS EXCELLENT. MINOR RUB MARKS ON BEDPLATE, MINOR WEAR TO THE BEDPLATE GOLD TRIM AND SEVERAL MINOR BLEMISHES TO AN OTHERWISE EXTREMELY NICE DECAL. CASE CLIPS ARE ABOUT AS NICE AS YOU WILL FIND AND CASE CONDITION IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS. I HAVE OWNED MORE THAN 70 OF THE SCHs AND THIS ONE IS ONE OF THE NICEST ONES I HAVE FOUND. NICE ORIGINAL CRANK. RUNS AND PLAYS NICELY. MACHINE HAS BEEN LIGHTLY LUBRICATED. THE SPRING HAS NOT BEEN REBUILT. IT IS STRONG AND WILL SOMETIMES THUMP BRIEFLY AS IT IS ABOUT WOUND DOWN.

NO SALES/SHIPPING OUTSIDE THE US. NO RETURN UNLESS NOT AS DESCRIBED. MACHINE WILL BE PROPERLY PACKED ( I HAVE SHIPPED SEVERAL DOZEN OF THIS MODEL WITH NO INCIDENTS). INSURANCE AND SHIPPING IS $30.00. NOTE : THIS PARTICULAR MODEL EDISON CAN BE QUIRKY AS REGARDS INFREQUENTLY COMING OUT OF ADJUSTMENT DURING SHIPPING. A BUYER WITH EXPERIENCE IN ADJUSTING THE SCHs IS A PLUS.

PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS EARLY AS I TRAVEL FREQENTLY AND MIGHT NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR LAST MINUTE INQUIRIES.
