In  regards to the Columbia AH Disc Graphophone that was recently purchased 
with a  Talkophone reproducer, elbow and Horn: Since the Talkophone Company was 
sued  out of existence and then from what I have been told, Columbia bought 
the  remaining stock of the Company, is it at all possible that Columbia 
utitlized  the parts of the defunct Talkophone Company and produced and sold AH's 
and  other rigid style tone arm Graphophones with the remaining Talkophone  
reproducers, aluminum elbows and Black and Brass 21" horns? or is this wishful  
thinking?


this is doubtful, since the Col AH dates from several years  before 
Talkophone's demise (ca 1909).
