Bush and Lane Duo-Vox. This machine had two reproducers. The Edison reproducers will fit a Victor arm. They do a splendid job of playing Diamond Discs on a lateral machine.

Thank’s for the info. This was at a Salvation Army store for $100, I thought it was a bit too much. The cabinet was in rough shape, motor and crank are there and working, the tone arm and elbows are ok also.

Bro, it's a Duo-Vox...you don't get it for cash value, but for jamming out! I'd have bought it in a New York minute.

I'd look into getting it only if it had the Edison side reproducer.
