Forty-four years in this hobby and still haven't seen it all and still learning new stuff. Amazing. I am so lucky to have this hobby!

Re: Edison C 250 Question
I think it's interesting too. It's strange that there aren't records of when these changes occurred and why they changed them.Valecnik wrote:Interesting thread. Yet another variation from a W250...
I found that the variation shown on your W250 was being used in 1918, but can't come up with more than that. Maybe the Edison Papers on the Rutgers site has something about this hidden in all those documents.

Re: Edison C 250 Question
This is the medallion that my C250 has; not the pentagonal one. The machine is from 1917 or so because it has the Duncan stop.Valecnik wrote:Interesting thread. Yet another variation from a W250...

The W&M W250 my photo is from is of the same vintage with the Duncan stop.Lenoirstreetguy wrote:This is the medallion that my C250 has; not the pentagonal one. The machine is from 1917 or so because it has the Duncan stop.Valecnik wrote:Interesting thread. Yet another variation from a W250...
