Edison Home model serial number

[rickdel]

A new board member with a renewed interest in phonographs. 
Does someone have a serial number vs. year list for Edison Home phonographs? 
The suitcase latch Home I have is serial number H29150. 
I bought it in 1992 from the daughter of the original owner (her father). 
In addition to a recorder and shaver and a box of cylinders. 
Would the year be about 1899 or 1900?

Yes, Your year estimation sounds about right...1899 or 1900....but George Paul will probably chime in here with the exact date that it left the Edison factory.

The 'L' prefix suggests one of the 'London' models, which were introduced around 1922. Unfortunately, there may not be more detailed information on its date of manufacture.
