Too bad I don't have a machine to put it on. Wasn't someone on the board looking for an Edison Needle Cut reproducer?? This one is brass, not pot metal!

John Robles http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360151521216&ssPageName=A DME:B:FSEL:US:1123 Hi John, This is the reproducer that came on the "uncatalogued" Edison needle-cut portable that was produced prior to the P-1 and P-2 models. I have one of these machines with that exact reproducer and it really is beautiful with a very heavy nickel finish just as you see in the offering on eBay. It's interesting that such a beautiful reproducer was placed on a machine with a really junky pot metal tonearm. It appears to me that the machine itself was made by the Prime Manufacturing Co. and Edison must have supplied only the reproducer. I've never before seen one in the original box. ---Art Heller **************Access 350+ FREE radio stations anytime from anywhere on the web. Get the Radio Toolbar!

Someone had one at the Orlando show which he later put on eBay. I had thought it went for $475, but according to my records it did not meet reserve at $282. I keep records of unusual Edison reproducers on eBay like the special 2 minute model J which is also a rare bird. Edison all brass portable needle cut reproducer $282 RNM I would guess this one will go for $550 to $600 since it has the box and is in such good shape. I have seen at least one other on eBay on a machine so this is the third or fourth one I have seen on eBay. The rarest of the rare has to be the early, flat K weight type of the Model M reproducer. If anyone has one of these or the flat H weight type of model L let me know. This had a diaphragm similar to the first copper one found in the Model C. Photos sent upon request of the diaphragms or the L. [email protected] Steve > My goodness, that soundbox has to be the rarest of the rare.
