Yes, I will measure the case when I'm at home, and post some detail photos. This one has the 10' turntable and the 2-spring motor. Guess those 3-springs motor/12' turntable europeian machines are rather rare. I have the original elbow and are now looking at a original horn. (I guess 'original' might be those metalhorns in oak finish). It have a 'witch Hat' horn now. That red german horn, was restored and sold years ago.

I'm wondering which is rarer the 2 spring or 3 spring 12" turntable version. Maybe Marco will know. The witch hat horn you show may not be typical but looks good if only for the time being. Does it have the correct recessed end to go into the elbow? It looks very like a Victor horn.
