Yes. It is a Columbia built client machine. Identical in all ways the the standard X-2 save for the decalcomania and the spindle. As I mentioned, Columbia took over the a Eagle name for scheme machines after the Talk-O-phone failure. That does not mean that there is any connection, save that some machines in this series (not this one, though) were built inside of left-over talk-o-phone cabinets, rather like the Standard L.

Here is the Talk-O-Phone eagle variant of the Sousa... An eBay item i found undrilled, (from when Columbia bought all of Talk-o-phones factory goods)... This only shares a name with the Eagle phonographs made by Columbia like the one this discussion is about..
