Hello Rene, If you don't mind what are the serial numbers and do they have the long hinge pin? The earliest Automatic reproducers have the long hinge pin like the standard speaker and blank arms were used. 52758 has a blank arm and 54226 says reproducer and 63841 is blank, once again Edison had not definite cut off. I love it as it makes things very interesting. Best wishes, Steve
