Horizontal carriage for Edison Standard Models D, E, F (maybe more?). This will accommodate a Diamond B or Model O reproducer. I was tols this was NOS when I bought it, and judging by the looks and lack of grease or wear, I would have to agree with that assessment. Can be shipped at buyers expense, or free delivery to the Stanton auction this weekend, or to Union with advance payment.

If the smaller reproducers like the C, H, K, R, and S fits this carriage, then it is for the Model F Standard. This carriage is unique to the Model F Standard introduced in 1911/12.

This is not an Edison Standard model F carriage. However it can be used on a Standard Model F with Diamond B reproducer, model O reproducer and C,H,K,S reproducers with reducer ring. The factory issue Edison Standard model F carriage has no 'trench' in the front of the carriage casting as this one does. The carriage 'trench' on this one is the most commonly found horizontal carriage design for the later Edison Standard models and accommodates the Diamond model B reproducer hinge block and the model O reproducer dial assembly.

I have a Model F Standard just posted for sale with the horizontal carriage and S reproducer

I originally bought this to upgrade my Standard D and use a Diamond B reproducer. The rest I wasn't sure about.

That's why I asked the question of what size reproducer will fit. I couldn't tell by the pictures.
