Could this device be used to dub discs to cylinders?

Fasinating attachment. You have to admire the ingenuity that went into these, even if they were less than perfect.
Thanks so much for sharing this unique piece of phono history.

At last I can actually see this operating! Thanks for posting this. I didn't know that it was this complicated device, and look how poorly this thing works....Also thanks for the clip of 'My Fair Lady'!

im glad it made an appearance but im not surprised this is the only one known in existance, it is useless, i think this would have been bought by a family with lots of money and when they realised it was pointless, they couldnt be bothered to return it, the one in my fair lady would be at the back of WB studios or in someones attic.
the only place for it is on display on your shelf

Will this fit on other edison machines? Have you ever got it to play all the way through a song? Where did you find this?
Thanks

It will fit any Edison machine though I have not tried it on anything other than the Standard. With a great deal of time and effort I was able to get it to play most of the way through a 10" record when I first got it, but it was hard to do and even then was not fully successful. It is fundamentallly flawed, which is no doubt why it was a failure. I got it from another collector, who found the attachment among some mixed parts in San Diego. A very lucky find.
