The horn color looks like a repro to me.  The odd thing is, it looks like it 
has the correct "bead" on the outside where the bell joins the neck.  It is 
hard to tell from the angle shown, but my vote is that it is repro.  The 
carriage makes no sense except maybe this machine lost the original one and 
someone stuck this one on. The correct carriage would be easy to find.

  Hi - someone had sent me some pictures of an Edison Standard they are looking 
to potentially sell. I have posted one of the pictures on my website at:

It's a Model B but has the horizontal carriage with large eye. I'm not an 
expert on this but I'd like to confirm that no other modification needed to be 
done to put this carriage on the Model B. It's a Model C reproducer, 
unfortunately with a broken hinge pin. Any comments on age of horn? Is this a 
reproduction? Why would someone set it up this way other than that this was the 
only carriage available to them at the time so that's what was used. It has 
been this way since at least 1981.

Thanks,
Glenn
