Victor machine? As seen in an episode of the Beverly Hillbillies. Machine was referred to as a “Victrola” and generic old timey sounding canned music was played.

The movie “Scary Stories to Tell In The Dark”, which is kind of a kids movie has this Edison Standard Model B, 2-minute machine in it with the model c reproducer and 14” two-tone Horn. The funny thing is they pull a blue amberol out of a 4-minute amberol, green box to play. Also they start playing the cylinder from the right side and in the photo below, the carriage pin is not pulled out so the carriage arm isn’t down! In one scene, the 4-minute amberol cylinder number can be read on the box lid, but I forgot to write it down. I did look it up in the UCSB database once. My 13 year old son actually recognized a couple of the errors.
