Hello Gang I have a Nice edison home case now The top that holds the bedplate will arrive next week.
This is great However I have a Question. The Back Of this case some one placed 4 holes it looked to have a Cygnet Horn bracket on it before . There is also a Place in the frunt inder bedplate lid for a face horn mount. The bottom center it is wood not solid ill show pics when I have a chance
any help to determin if this is the correct case is Much appreciated
Thank You All for any and all help

I think it's quite possible to find cases that show evidence of having a front mounted crane and holes in the back for a Cygnet horn. I believe owners were anxious to keep their machine "current" so dealers must have done quite a bit of business installing combination attachments and Cygnet horns and cranes. Jerry

Ok Jerry that comferms my question
so I have to ask a person of your expertese what is I to do>?/
Thanks from will

If it were mine, I would not feel an obligation to find all the Cygnet pieces unless it's a special machine. I would probably enjoy it with a 14" horn or an attractive M/G horn. Jerry

O Ok cause I was going to fill all the 4 holes and well the case has to be redone.
but all in all I own a orignal cygnet horn n craine ok Thanks for the great info and help
sincerely will
