Good answer, Carlos, thank you for the information!

Now, that perhaps goes some way to explaining why original Victor elbows make more money these days than a complete Pathé horn machine (cheaper small models) with a box of records thrown in. If accurately reproducing the originals is an expensive task that might explain why not many people have done it.
