Thanks! That clears that up...Phonofreak wrote:Bill, I've been out most of the day and I'm answering your question. The early BZH had a small case with a stamped metal grill. It used the same push-pull motor that was used on the early horned machines, both front mount and rear mount. This one pictured used the later pillar and plate motor.I have both versions. I believe Columbia imported these motors from Germany around 1912 until 1914. These motors were used in the inexpensive Grafoniolas , Disk Graphophones, and Client machines.
