It was just a matter of time before something like this appeared on eBay.
 
I actually like it.  An Amberola DX motor, Edison Home MG horn bell, brand X 
tone arm and bracket, and a Graphophone or homemade cabinet make this 
conglomeration a humorous version of a frankenphono.
 
eBay 320340552023  will give you a chuckle.
 
Regards to All,
 
Al

I don't  know enough about Columbias to know what kind of reproducer is  
shown  in the photos. But I believe it worked OK.

The back bracket and tone arm are from a US Banner phonograph which matches 
the cabinet somewhat......probably the best part of the whole machine.
