Thanks Edisone--- It was in the July 1920 edition-- page # was a little hard to read, but I believe it is 218b.
The ad mentions that Eject-o-File had a factory fire on April 29, 1920 and in this July 1920 ad they are announcing that shipments will resume in September.
Thanks!

I'd prefer the curvy-legged model. (click to see or download the readable size)

If it were me, I would be more inclined to buy an Edison upright, even a common one, before buying a B-19 and cabinet. Although that's a more interesting option in some ways, the B-19 was made of cheaper gum wood slats that are prone to being scratched easily. Many are also stained unevenly. Mechanically, they are the same as their contemporaries and have the smaller horn. I would vote for an S-19, C-150, or similar instead, or a C-19/C-250 if you want the larger horn.
One advantage to the B-19 on a cabinet - both pieces are easy to move on your own. Many of the Edison uprights are beastly heavy
