A vintage Edison Standard Phonograph with serial number S303923 and last patent date of November 17, 1903, measures 13" wide x 9 1/2" deep x 11" tall with the lid attached. This old beauty has been fitted with a later "Type-H" reproducer that was introduced to the public in 1908, allowing it to play 4-minute cylinders. The wood base housing and lid have a few minor nicks, with the original Edison decal on the outside of the box being in MINT condition. Included is an original Dalhart "You Don’t Know What You’re Missing" wax cylinder. The phonograph is in excellent working condition and includes the original 14" brass horn and a facsimile of the original operating booklet.
