The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I would like to see what the correct reproducer for my coin op AS looks like. I appreciate any help.

Curt, according to Hazelcorn’s reference book, it’s a #2 and there is a picture in the book as well. If you don’t have the book, I can send you a copy.

It is the same as a conventional Eagle reproducer, except that it has a small added collar at the end, with a tiny set screw. This is to hold the reproducer firmly in place so that it doesn't fly off when the carriage is flung rapidly back to the beginning at the end of play. A normal Eagle reproducer will work, but if you want strict historical accuracy you'll have to hunt for one of these coin-op versions.

Hi Curt- I sent you an email-- I may be able to help.

Thanks Raphael, Rene and Brad for your help.
