Hi group, A good friend of mine has this machine, It is a small case 12 x12 with incisings on the corners and a European motor and back bracket. To get to the motor, you have to remove the case bottom.The horn is a fluted one on a slip in elbow that is common with European machines. The horn is wood grained to look like quartersawn oak. I has the same plate as you described. I'd love to see your machine. Maybe there are different variations. Harvey Kravitz

I picked  up a machine tag for the Atlantis* Talking Machine Company. It is
large (3  1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches) and shows an external horn machine
with 
Columbia  on the horn and Victor on the machine.  The tag says "This
talking

machine will play Columbia and Victor Records."  Has anyone heard of this 

firm or were they sued by Victor and Columbia early  on?

Is this really Atlantis and not Atlantic? I see the latter listed in a 1916

book.
