I didn't know Edison offered so many electric models for personal use! :o

OrthoFan, thank you for this resource. For my part I did not know that the Model B reproducer had already been relegated to the Gem, or that the 160rpm speed was already standardised; no doubt other new facts will emerge as I read through the catalogue in detail.

Many thanks for posting this. We seldom see such items here in the UK.

Thank you for sharing this catalog. For some time I was wondering; Was there ever a time when every Edison phonograph leaving the factory (except the Gem) was supplied with the Model B reproducer? Info in the catalog seems to suggest this.

Seems to not be downloadable any longer. It is certainly in the Public Domain, so copyright should not be an issue. Any chance of a re-upload?

I just tried the link I provided above, prior to logging in, and it downloaded okay.

See if you can download from the original (source) link -- https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q ... Iu963qMkjf

If that doesn't work, it's possible that some security settings on your end are blocking the download. In that case, you might want to PM one of the members who downloaded it, and perhaps they could email it to you.
