For those who are following this study, two more questions have been  
added to the bottom of the Edison A-250 questionnaire:
18) Cabinet finish (may add more specifics later):
Red mahogany: Serial #1429
Dark mahogany: Serial #13417
Oak: Serial: #11187

19) Number of mainsprings (Frow indicates earliest production may  
have had single-spring motors).  Spring barrels are visible if you  
remove the grille and peer into the motor compartment by looking in  
the upper r.h. corner.  A flashlight helps.  The spring closest to  
the winding crank will be more visible.
One:
Two: Serial #1429, 5751, 11187, 12033.

I'll continue to update the list as I obtain more data.  For those  
who may be interested in following this study, please let me know if  
you would like to have me post updates to this list as I add each  
additional machine, or have me post updates with each two or three  
machines added (if we should be so fortunate), or if you prefer to  
contact me instead.  Now that I have the list formatted, it's  
convenient to include additional entries and post the updates.

Best regards,
Andy
