Idelia Model-C Reproducer

Post by rgordon939 »

Here is something you just don't see. I picked up a few weeks ago. It an Edison Idelia Model-C Bronze Oxidixed reproducer. This is the reproducer that was used in the first version of the Idelia. I'm attaching the original picture sent me letting me know it was for sale. I just got home yesterday from triple bypass surgery. Passed out driving and took out a telephone pole. Will post some more pictures at a later date. I'm sure this will be going to Steve Medved to clean up and tune up.

Rich... are you saying that they released you from the hospital after surgery and let you drive home...??? What's up with that???

No, the accident was two weeks ago and the surgery was one week ago. My daughter and my wife drove me home yesterday day.
