What is the difference between a Edison B-1 and a Edison 1-B ?? Thanks

I think we are talking about the same thing. I have seen the big Amberolas referenced by the number first and sometimes by the letter first. Jerry

Thanks - I have a B-1 cabinet still sitting in my shed sans motor (which was stolen before the cabinet was given to me).. Cheers

Hope it's protected! These can be really nice (and valuable) machines.

Cabinet definitely needs some veneer work but can be rescued.
I was on the lookout for a motor for years but finally gave up. Whoever stole the motor also took time to destroy the grill. I love restoring these type machines but no room, just put 17 machines in an auction a few months ago.

Dutchman, please check your PMs.
