Bob, George P:
That's very interesting. I thought my AH with the asymmetric winding hole was the earliest version of the AH. Now I learn there's and earlier of the earliest with a record clamp. And I thought I had the earliest analyzer reproducer, one with a thumbscrew rather than a spring-loaded lever. From eBay, recently, I learned that there's even an earlier of the earliest reproducer, one that looks like a Victor Concert complete with a thumbscrew. Well, what can I say? I have neither. And so now I have new purpose in life, finding both of these in the local, backwood auctions I go to--that is if they ever resume.
