The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Hello everyone. Does anyone have for sale, know of for sale or have in their collection an Edison A290 Sheraton? If you do and are able to, could you please post pictures? I can't find any other posts here about this magnificent machine, which really surprises me. I have made it one of my life missions to own one of these. Thank you for your time and any information you may have.

Here's a Brochure/Catalogue from 1913-14 for Edison. Includes engraving(or lithograph) of the A290 Sheraton. Google images only had this - sorry... and this but it's an A275, but we're getting warmer no? https://donleyauctions.hibid.com/lot/66 ... honograph/

Thank you Duchesne for your response. I do have a copy of that catalog but it is nice to see the pictures enlarged on the screen. The A275 is also a very attractive, well designed machine, but it's hard to understand why more people didn't go for the A290 when looking in that range. For only $15 more you got a lot more artistic woodwork. It was really a good deal. It seems like it should have been priced at $325. If anyone is interested, there is a video of an A290 Sheraton on YouTube. It is the only video I have found so far featuring this elusive machine.

Perhaps you can place a message in the Yankee Trader section.
