Pathé Reproducer

[Ole Canal Antiques]

Just curious what type of machine this goes to? Or what model shall i say...

[Phonofreak]

I have that reproducer. It goes on either the earlier internal horn or the later outside horn Pathephones. They came in either gold or silver color.

It would fit some of those pictured in this thread.

Whoa, that is a neat looking player!!

Here's a French machine with the same reproducer, but they were used on a variety of models.
The machine below is a 1914 model no.36, but in the same year it was also used on the model no's 15, 19, 23, 25, 28, the Duplex A, Concert models no.1 & 3, and the Pathegraphe Model no.1. These are all internal horn machines, and none of the open horn machines are listed as using the Concert as standard equipment.
However, the concert reproducer was also sold separately as an upgrade, and appears in the 1910, 1912 & 1914 catalogues. I haven't come across a later catalogue than 1914, but I'm sure it would have available well after 1914 as well.

This is the type of reproducer and machines that would play the Pathé hill-and-da -- er, I mean, VERTICAL sapphire ball u-shaped groove records.

Either or....
They're the same thing depending what school you went to

I was just curious - is that your Pathé? if not, were the photos from an auction? I actually have the same model and - although I know the value isn't necessarily phenomenal, nor is the machine that terribly rare - I've never seen another one before.

Looks like it was auctioned Brian.

And here's the 1914 catalogue page.
Beautiful machine btw!
