[Phono-L] Edison London Console

[ger]

Hi,

How do I know what type of reproducer I have?
And what is the deal with the "Edisonic"??
Here's a link to photos:

The woman wants $25 for the rest of this machine...I don't know. It is really heavy and missing the grill on the right, loose parts; turntable goes around; she says it plays.

  Accordin to Frow they were introduced in 1922. They were sold along with the 
  Edisonics and not further mentioned. Not to bore anybody again with this 
  story but I bought one of the London Uprights that had never been uncrated. 
  Fortunately, it had a nice new Edisonic reproducer just waiting for me. ;-)
