The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I am looking for a reproducer that mounts to the tone arm of the Columbia Sterling Graphophone. It has three screw holes in the back and mounts directly to the tone arm. Pictures attached are of the reproducer I am looking for. (not my own photos, these were taken from an ended ebay auction).

Thank you!

If you don't mind the lack of branding info, the Standard Talking Machines used the same reproducer.

That's good to know! Actually, I also need to have the spring replaced in this machine, so I would probably do well to save some money on the reproducer replacement.

On my Standard, the motor was identical to that of an early Grafonola except that the Standard had one spring and the Grafonola had three.

Thanks! I'll keep that in mind. I've often done whole motor transplants on phonographs, easier sometimes that trying to replace parts.

A single spring Standard A motor will not fit on your BI. The metal bedplate is too small.

Got it... reproducer installed. Now I need to figure out if the spring is broken or if it's off its mounting post...
