Could this be a BRASS orthophonic reproducer?

Post by toydk »

I saw this on eBay and it is described as a brass reproducer. I thought the Victor brass orthophonic reproducers had one less “slot” on top than the pot metal reproducers. This seems to have the same number as the pot metal reproducers. So is it indeed brass?

Thanks,
Dean

No,
the brass ones have 7 openings and the needle bar assembly is a separate piece,not part of the casting
