Another annoying "When was my Edison made?"

Post by 1923VictorFan »

Sorry about this question. We'll actually 3 questions. Can someone share some dates for my 3 Edisons?
Standard (banner) #S209793,
Standard Model D #732384 and
Home Model D #355032.
That's my entire Edison mini-collection!
Many thanks in advance! 8-)

I can't help with manufacturing dates, but original Edison sales data survives from 1896-May 1908.

Standard #209793 left the factory in May 1905.
Standard Model D #732384 was sold after May 1908. Sorry I can't help with that one.
Home Model D #355032 was sold after May 1908. Sorry I can't help with that one either.
