I've had this credenza unit for 20 years, and I've always wondered whether it was an official Edison Bell model (as the Soundbox is an 'Edison Bell Electrotone') or a makeshift box somebody built themselves. I say this because the hole in the middle of the right door doesn't line up with the horn: the lower half of the horn is aimed through the hole, but the upper half is obscured by the door. But perhaps this was intentional...maybe the door is meant to be a partial mute?
When I got the machine the wood was a very light colour with all kinds of marks and stains on it, and the veneer on the top of it was cracking anyway, so I made it presentable by staining all of the wood a dark mahogany. Besides the inscription on the soundbox there are no other discernible markings anywhere on the machine that would indicate a manufacturer or model number.
Any ideas as to what this baby could be?
