Did Danny Arms woodgrain your horn?
Yes this is one Danny did for me probably 20 years ago
I thought so, I have one too and one for a Columbia BKT. Too bad Danny isn't still with us, he was very talented...

This crane wS on a home B with c reproducer. Phonograph was a parts machine at best. Salvaged what I could and this was one part. Should fit

Actually, that one might work for both, but it has aa different offset than an angled carriage crane.
