Columbia question for Harvey... (or anyone else)

Post by Curt A »

Just wondering if the reproducer in the following pics is an AZ lyric reproducer... I have seen pics of others that had a weight like an Edison reproducer and wondered what the difference is.... Also, does anyone have the top knurled screw that holds the reproducer in place?

Looks like an Ediphone reproducer to me.

Definitely not an AZ reproducer: that had a large round weight.

I'm sorry for being late chiming in on this. Yes, this is an Ediphone reproducer. The AZ reproducer is similar to a Model C, but the weight is different. If anyone has an AZ with the correct reproducer, please post it so Curt knows what to look for.
