just noticed you've expanded from #19 to all.

Yes, I decided I might as well because there were so many contributions outside of my OP.

I didn't want to discard all of this "extra" information, so I incorporated it, and I will just highlight the serialized stickers in red. I'm sure that it can all be used at some point in the future.

Thank you, DGPros.

In 2011, we did a major research project in conjunction with the New London Public Museum, New London, WI. New London was the home of the Edison Wood Products Company fondly known to the townsfolk as "The Edison". For many years from 1917 through 1927, the company manufactured phonograph and radio cabinets for the Edison Company. We believe that cabinets bearing the number 18 were produced by this plant.

Below are three photos (circa 1920) showing the construction of phonograph cabinets. The caption: WC&P stands for Wisconsin Cabinet and Panel Company, a subsidiary of the Edison Phonograph Co. Somehow, the first two photos and their captions have been transposed. The first shows assembly of C-19 cabinets and the second photo assembly of H-19 cabinets. Above the cabinet in the center, one can see hanging grills of a Chippendale, A-100, and an Amberola. The third photo W-226, shows assembly of Amberola 30 cabinets. Frow states on P 75 The Edison Disc Phonographs that the Wisconsin Cabinet and Panel Company produced a total of 106,345 cabinets.
