The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Here we have an two original items that are a great addition to your machine. One is an Edison oil can, the other is an Edison grease jar. What makes these special or the oil can special is the shape and label. Two oil cans are commonly seen one is rounded (as this one is) one is stepped. The stepped version is usually associated with the later Diamond Disk. The rounded version is commonly depicted with early Edison cylinder machines. However, this is rounder version, with the Diamond Oil label, a label associated with the Diamond Disk machines. So this is a early oil can, most likely associated with the A series of Diamond Disk. The grease jar is just a nice example to compliment the oil can.

The price is $65.00 plus shipping to you. No PayPal on this, but checks are fine.
