What exactly was the Balmoral? The 1910 catalogue mentions them in the repeater section, and it looks like they may have been based on the Triumph??
The Alva is basically an electric Triumph isn't it, so what then make a Balmoral a Balmoral?

I had to look this one up - thought I knew them all - wrong again!
LukeW is correct. These were made from 1905-1910. I didn't know that M's were manufactured that late except for coin-op use. If you look at the production numbers provided by Frow, the number sold was very low (less than 100 / year). In 1903 only 4 electric machines were sold by Edison.
These have got to be rare beasts.
