What model Edison diamond disc is this?
I was looking on my local craigslist and came across this Edison. http://dayton.craigslist.org/atq/4397568697.html at first I thought it was a Edison LU-37 but after further research the grill isn't right. So what model is this?

Looks like an L-19 Louis XIV.

Definitely an L-19. Not found very often, as it was a slow seller; but, as a 'Laboratory Model', it would certainly beat the stuffing out of an LU-37…

Here is the picture lifted from the listing, adjusted so that you can actually see the machine. (NOT my listing.)

Congratulations!
Don't know what the interior condition is like, but if it's got a good stylus, I think the price is very good (the L-19 sold for about $300 when new).

I picked it up today for only $200! It is AWSOME it came with a lot of 20s jazz records both 78s and DD and even some 1 sided victor and columbia records. Its in very nice condition and the serial number is 93 and it came with a adapter for 78s. I'll try to post some pictures tomorrow but Im going to a wedding so if not tomorrow I will on Monday.
