The green horn has hand painted flowers, which I doubt is original. It's for sale locally for $650. THanks, Mike Greetings Mike: There is no such Edison domestic Phonograph as a Model H. The only Model H items I know of are a Model H coin operated machine and a Model H 4 minute reproducer. You see this misidentification all the time on eBay. People think the machine model is what is written on the reproducer tail. Triumph machines went to a Model G, Homes to an F, Standards to a G, Gems to an E, and Firesides to a B. Not an H among them. Assuming your machine is a Model D Standard equipped with a Model H reproducer and with a green painted Babson horn and crane, the eBay prices average $400 to $600 depending on condition and horn decoration. Babson horns can go from 6 panels up to 11 panels as commonly offered on eBay. The small plain horns do not command the prices of the largest 11 panel horns done in translucent clear coat with hand painted flowers. TTCo horns go for a bit more depending on their condition and decoration. Occasionally you will see a larger brass belled Standard Amplifying Horn painted green rather than black. There are many variables in determining Edison machine value. You need to supply more information for a more accurate estimate. Is this an eBay sale? If so, give the number and knowledgeable collectors on this learned list can give you a fairly good estimate of value. One eBay effect is the continued lowering of prices on common cylinder machines. My guess is that is due to a lack of decent cylinder records to play. There is just something uninspiring about Toots Paka's Hawaiians. Best wishes, Al Edison Collector of cylinder machines... Who wouldn't know how to work a flat record machine... ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
