Vintage reproducer found

My father in law sits on 15 acres of woods. On this land back in the day was a old Boy Scout camp and a few homes.
Now I know what my 705 is telling me I am starting to hit this area little by little

I found this part of a old player

This part dates from 1800s-1900
Looks like the part that reproduced the sound

I think I found one of the old sites I am pretty sure. Tons of square nails and iron hits then
This killer 44 hit.

Yep! That's part of a reproducer. It held the needle, had a sounding arm, and mica diaphragm.
I actually know a guy that does repair on them. I had the diaphragm on my floor Model 10 (exactly like the one on the left of the page you linked to) reproducer replaced. He turned me on to a source for SS needles too.
