Year of manufacture

Post by LONG ISLAND »

Hello!! In what year was the four clip suitcase Edison Home with the banner decal on the lid first manufactured and when did it cease? I thank you in advance for any information you may be able to afford me. Gerard

Production began in 1896 and ended in 1901. There was an article detailing production changes and dating on the suitcase Home which appeared in the September 2006 issue of The Sound Box, available here:
