Nice looking Triumph! One curious observation that made me do a second, third and fourth look at the pictures are the unusually large corner designs on this one. I have eight or nine Edison Triumphs in my collection and have never seen any original hand drawn corner decorations as large as on this one. This clearly reveals that there were at least two different people drawing these and each had their own style of making the corner designs on the higher end Edison phonographs. Very nice and very interesting. :)

Interesting, I have never really payed much attention to the size and design difference of the triumph corner designs. I went to look at my triumph and seems like the corners are equally as large as the ones in this post, however I did notice something interesting which I hadn't noticed before, which is that the tufts around the 2 "loops" is different from other triumphs and the the ones on the top.
