The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Hi,

I have this Zonophone Concert V reproducer.

I would like to know wether it is orginal.

I have two well known experts arguing if it is orginal. One says it is, the other says it is an older reproduction.

What do you guys think?

I vote "Original"

Lettertype and placing is a bit different than some…

But one of the experts said that there are 2 or 3 variations…

Also plate with lettering should be silver, but maybe there is some oxidation etc …

Help!

BTW the screw is not original.

The lettering is on silver paper, which has been stained with rust.
