I had a very early AH, and the long throat repoducer was unmarked, almost the size and shape of a Victor Concert reproducer. The case however, was not knurled like the Victor. This may actually be the earlier style of the Columbia long throat. A picture would be helpful.

The reproducer is a long throat and the printing under the Micah, merely says Patented Nov. 18, 1902, other Patents pending, there is also a number on the back 43129 on the back and, It has a thumb screw, rather then a "clamp" style for the needle. Is this an early analyzing reproducer, or do I have something else here?

The elbow looks exactly like those found on a Talkophone, go to the website that features the talkophone machines!!, and the horn is 21" long, exactly the length that is found on the Talkophone!! Always remember that old adage "Let the buyer beware". Seems that I may be now in the Market for an original Columbia long throat reproducer and a Columbia horn for my AH, and trying to find a buyer for an original Talkophone reproducer elbow and horn.
