Edison filed for a U.S. patent for a “Governor for Motors.” This device would become the motor for the Edison “Home” Phonograph, in production with minor changes until 1913.

Analogous Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 The juxtaposition of this patent and the Amet posting is interesting. Was there a sense that machines needed more massive governors prior to Edison's filing? I guess the first step would be to read what he patented! John
tomb Posted February 5, 2021 Posted February 5, 2021 My favorite phonograph is the first homes. Thanks for the information. I brought bunch of them and even gave one to my sister. I am going to start trading them when we open the shows at Stanton. They are all complete. Tom
