The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I've restored this Edison Business Phonograph Model C. My research tells me this puts it at about 1905. I've restored it to a point. All parts are original, except the lid. The decal is a Grgg Kline product. The Recorder was repaired by Wyatt Markus. The motor runs but I have never had it connected to the rheostat on the back. The lid is from another machine. This lid had hinges on it but the case is earlier and did not have hinges. I have the hinges if you want to drill out the case and attach them. The machine came with a speaking tube with a glass mouthpiece that attaches to the Recorder.
Please ask questions and I will do my best to answer them.
