Edison 60-C

Post by briankeith »

My recent purchase = an Edison 60-C mission oak. (big heavy monster) The inside of the grille has no signs of ever having grille cloth, plus the horn is nicely painted Faux wood grain. I assume it left the factory without having any grill cloth? Thoughts?

Was this the machine I saw being hauled through the Wayne parking lot at about 11:00am on Sunday? If so, it looked great!

I don't think these had grille cloths.

Best,

I really like this tabletop Edison.

Are these rare? What would they go for as far as price?

Are you sure that's not a 60 C?

These are cool machines. If there's no trace of old cloth inside the grille, I'd leave it open. Heck, I'd probably leave it open anyway! :)

Thanks - I've seen 60 Cs, but not a 70 C. Interesting.

VERY nice! What's the difference between the B-60 and C-60? Is there some variation in the motor? :monkey:
