Yes, the diaphragm is metallic. Jerry B.

Wow I honestly never knew just how many types of reproducers were out there. Some of what you guys have deserves to be in a museum. Incredible

The Automatic Soundbox is a good example of a device which did what few people wanted done.
It's unwise use of pot metal for the plunger has ensured that few survive in working order.

Can the magazines be refilled?

Standard steel needles are too long to fit into the magazine. I suspect that the manufacturers realised that owners might try to save money by refilling the magazines themselves, and made it impossible for them to do so.

[1913Concert]

Here is a reproducer I have had for over 50 years. I’ve never encountered another quite like it. It’s to my eye somewhere between an Exhibition and a Victrola No2 and while similar in ways to the Improved Concert different from that too. Last patent is 1913. Anyone else have one or have information about it I would really appreciate hearing!
