I'm sure you noticed that this machine comes with a reproducer for lateral records which is not aligned with the spindle.
Normally, the Pathé A has a Pathé Concert reproducer for hill and dale records.
Of course, it's possible to use a shorter adapter to mount a needle reproducer aligned with the spindle.

Yes, I saw that--I'm wondering if maybe that's why it hasn't sold. If I can contrive to buy the machine, I'll need to get a Pathé vertical cut reproducer for it.

I sent you a PM.
