I received an Edison Home Phonograph from family recently. I don't know anything about it. Can someone tell me year based on serial number: H50876 Attachments:

I'm not certain about the serial number (George Paul can help you on that), but this is a 'red banner' Model A Home. The 'new style' Model A was introduced in 1901; but Edison used up the remaining stocks of 'suitcase' model decals, before using the 'black banner' decals. Given that, and that the last patent date is 1898, I would say that your machine is from 1901.

I really appreciate the help. I'm just learning about this item. Dad bought it at auction in the 70's and it's been in a box since with about 50 tubes.
