That's from a Victor RE-45 or RE-75, most likely. It's the standard horseshoe magnetic pickup that was used on many early electric machines of the 1929 - 32 period. The drawn metal cover would usually be embossed with the appropriate logo for whatever set maker was using it.

Can anyone identify this reproducer and what machine is goes on?

I know it's from a Victor machine, as it obviously has the Nipper. It also says "Victor" under the Berliner phono, so I assume it is from the USA, a pre-dates the RCA takeover.
