Inventory of Beethoven and Schubert Edisonic phonographs

[marcapra]

Well, it can't be 3675 since that one is amputated. It would have to be 1246.

Just found another Edisonic Schubert model listed on Craigslist. Here is a picture of the serial number. Here is a link to the ad. http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/atq/4963648360.html
This is not my ad so I don't know anymore about it, just passing along the information.

Looks like a good deal! Schubert is a great little console! or if you would prefer a Beethoven, just send me a PM. Marc.

Aincha even a lil bit tempted? That round lid on your car's backside is for gas; put in enough and go march on Atlanta like Sherman.

NEW OWNER FOR SCHUBERT EDISONIC #1556.

The hand-off occurred today in Athens, Ohio, halfway between my residence (Ralph's, in metro Chicago) and Gene Emering's (in New Jersey). Gene's #1556 is now mine, and I therefore now own two Schuberts (along with #3621).

I don't attend as many shows as some of the rest of you, and therefore this realization has come upon me slowly--but, my goodness, I have now met some incredibly big-hearted individuals in this hobby (it takes in-person meetings to really bring it home). Gene, for example, handed me a box of Diamond Discs with the Schubert, which he didn't have to do; he coupled it with the sentimental explanation that the records had come with the machine and should remain with it. I've been playing those records tonight; half of them are new numbers to my collection--and included among them are several "electrics."

So, Gene, I hope you don't mind my singing your praises a bit.

Ralph,

It was a pleasure meeting you!
Thank you for your kind words.

Best of luck with the Schubert.

NEW OWNER FOR SCHUBERT EDISONIC #1844

Gene Emering's friend Richard Gordon has purchased Schubert #1844, which had been advertised via Yankee Trader (from Wisconsin) earlier this year and which I featured on this string on March 11. So, always nice to see these machines gain new homes.

I can add a couple here.

I have Schubert No. 1020. Interesting that it is named "New Edison" under the lid rather than "Edisonic." Judging by the serial number, I would imagine it's one of the first ones made.












Also have a Beethoven, acquired recently from the collection of Ron Dethlefson.











Running out of room, so the Shubert is for sale if anyone is interested.
