Wanted: Edison C2 or interesting Edison

Post by Dustie89 »

Hi

I'm going on a road trip next week. Will be pressed for time but the trip will take me, starting from Texas to Lexington Kentucky to Pittsburg penn to orange Nj to Charlotte NC and then back to Texas. Looking to see what might be out there or collections along the way to see. Trip will start 4/21/16 and I will have to be back 4/27/16. Can adjust the trip depending on what pops up.

Would like to buy a good working/ restored Edison C2 or other Interesting Edison phono items or machines for our museum.

Thanks
Dustin Ellis

Here is a very rare Edison from 1930, the last year that the entertainment wing of the Edison Co. manufactured something. The R-6 Edison 1930 radio. but I'm a bit out of your intinerary!

Yes, very neat piece. Way out of the way though. Any way it could make it to Union?

It's possible. If someone from So. Calif. was driving to Oregon and could drop it off with Jerry Blais. He goes to Union. And I think Steve Oliphant goes to Union from Burbank, CA. PM me for more details if interested. Marc.
