That's really nice!

The rigid arm Victor and the Pathéphone are nice too. Don't see either of those everyday...

A strong Craftsman style here...
I do not know what it is, I just saw it on Craigslist today and they did not say.

Other than that, I'm stumped (oak)... ;)

You are exactly correct. An Edison J-19 Diamond Disc machine. A late, and not overly popular or common, model. But I like it because it is unique and not as big as some others. Decorations on the front are from various different woods.

I'm curious about that box Dan. The maroon "Edison Re-Creations" box. What's it for? :monkey:

I wondered if anyone would notice it. I ran into it about 6 months ago. I have never seen another and have no idea if they are rare or not. But, it is really great. It contains index card dividers and is used to hold cards about records. The original owner wrote right on the dividers, but I suspect it was meant to hold cards for each record.

Has anyone else seen one of these?

Well I've certainly never seen one before. Pretty cool accessory in my opinion. :)

Hey, this thread is fun. I've a dozen or so grilles that I have no idea what they go to. I hope you don't mind helping to ID them. Here's the first one, it is 16 X 15 ¾ inches. Cheers, Russie Ofria
