Edison Diamond Disc Phonographs
1912-1929
With the competition from Columbia and Victor among others, Edison
decided
to introduce a Disc phonograph. The disc format provided an
easier
possibility for record storage, not necessarily a better tone
quality.
The earlier machines used amberola cabinets, but later machines were
designed
more for the distinct disc format. The last disc machines
were
actually designed to play long-play records, up to 20 minutes on a
side. <>
