Hi All,
I recently got a reprint of the catalogue of Edison Phonographs, Records, Reproducers, Attachments & Accessories (what a mouthful!) form No.1865 dated Oct 1910.
Page 25 shows the Edison Grand Opera records, in both 2 & 4 min wax with prices etc, but the picture shows a plain box with just Edison written on it- like the later Blue Amberol Concert series boxes?? Is there a 2 min box and wax Amberol box like this? The only 2 min grand opera boxes I recall seeing were like normal 2 min boxes with Grand Opera included in the design, and I've never seen a Amberol Grand Opera box. I've always thought the plain box with the word "Edison" across it was a BA box only!
