No pot metal issues... Trunion is clean with no cracks. Reproducer lever is a little stiff but actuates ok.

Here are pictures of the reproducer and trunion.
Reproducer is nickel plated brass and will need to be rebuilt. Stylus is good. Will need new gaskets which I believe is the same as the Columbia Analyzing.
I could never get this reproducer to play louder than a Lyric or an Edison C. Maybe just a gasket issue as I installed the Exhibition gaskets.
