The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Offering a rare Edison 4-minute recorder.

I have not tested the recorder however cutting stylus appears to intact. Mic.a not perfect. Serial # 527854

Please see pictures and i can do additional pictures if any interest. I cannot verify if all original. Those in the know may know from the serial #

2-minute recorders are fairly common but very rare to find a 4-minute recorder.

Hello Herman,

The stylus looks good. The four minute recorder appeared early in the 520,000 range. Around 620,000 recorders were made. Because the stylus is so tiny it is hard to find one that is not broken or missing.

Thanks Steve. That was what I was hoping to hear.

Herman

Would you take 200$? Thanks for considering!
