Hi, the horn measures approx. 12 inches long by 10 inches across the bell . The picture posted by drh pretty much shows the setup. You will notice a short "arm" on which the horn rests when not playing a record. My own example does not have that arm and relies solely on the horn fitting to support the horn which it seems to do ok , so maybe there were two patterns of the horn fitting --' my example does not look as if it has been altered in any way. Incidentally I may have a spare horn support rod --' bear with me. Regards Dulcetto

Thank you , I’d be interested in the arm if you have one. I check out the EBay France to see what horns they have.

The horn support arms are often lost as people do not know how to correctly store them. Pathé had a system with their phonographs.

Nice work! I suspect that in the pre-internet days, it would have been a real task to complete a machine like this. In fact, I know it would have been difficult, as my collecting predates the internet era.

Congratulations on completing very nice machine!

Beautiful machine. Where did you source the rubber reproducer extensions? Been looking for one for quite some time.
