Looking for a machine to put in the cyclone cabinet. Would love to find a home with the red banner on the case.

The proper term is "Cyl-O-Phone" (as in "cylinder phonograph"). The first advertisements in the April 1908
Talking Machine World used this term, although in May is was labeled "Cyclo-Phone," but this quickly reverted to "Cyl-O-Phone" and it's believed that the temporary terminology was simply a typo.
Several examples of the Cyl-O-Phone cabinet and similar cabinets are shown in
Gadgets, Gizmos, and Gimmicks, as well as
Antique Phonograph Accessories & Contraptions.
