This was nice to see: replica Concert V reproducer.
There haven't been any decent reproductions since Mirek Stehlik stopped making them years ago. His replicas have become quite valuable. These new ones look great.

These look great. This fills a void for those Zonophones missing this reproducer. Original, complete ones go for about $1000.00 plus, if you can even find one.

Re: Zonophone Concert V reproducers
The young man making these bought the reproduction parts business from the Smiths from Poland, OH., when they retired! He has quite a bit in the works currently, including a wedding in June!
He is going to make closed face Berliner sound boxes sometime after the nuptials. I have offered him a quality reproduction closed face Zonophone reproducer from the '70's so that he can copy and offer closed face Zonophone reproducers for the earlier machines!
If you have a tough part that others might also need, you can always contact them to see what it would take for them to make a run of parts! They are in Ohio. It is JAS Antiques. Here is their web address:

I have already thanked them for making these hard to come by reproducers. You can too, by buying one if you need one!

I was tempted to buy one even though I have no need! It looks great.

Even though I didn't need it, I bought one to use as a spare. It was shipped immediately and arrived in perfect condition today. Justin is a great supplier and has aways been prompt, courteous and reasonably priced.
