I had time to look at my C-19 this afternoon. Serial no. 79240. The paper tag inside the horn compartment reads cabinet no. 19, form 890 no serial number.
Interesting research, good luck.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that Cabinet factory No.19 was Edison's New London factory. Can anyone confirm/correct that?

Hiya George,

The only mention that I've found by Frow in Disc Phonographs[sic] that implies a specific cabinet factory to the manufacture of a singular model is on page 176. In explaining the Edisonic models; "The cabinets are thought to have been made at New London, Wisconsin."

When I was at your house on Thursday, I noted the cabinet factory sticker on your Schubert was No. 18.

So, at least as far as this can be believed, No.18 would seem to have been the New London factory.

George, would you mind adding this to the survey? I neglected to note the serial number the other day. :oops:
