Victrola VV 8-9 carved appliques
As many of you know, I've just acquired a Victrola VV 8-9. I need to replace the carved wood appliques on the front of the cabinet. Does anyone have these pieces for sale, or could recommend a place where I could find them? I've asked APSCO and they don't have them. Thanks.

You're not likely to find them. I'd suggest you create a mold of your existing one and use it to fill in the missing pieces. There are instructions for this in Compleat Talking Machine and on the board.

The center one that's missing a piece is symmetrical.

I am the seller of the 8-9 to Bruce, and I have that piece which I took off of my other 8-9. I am planning to make a mold and send Bruce the molding for his. Like so many things in life, I just haven't got around to it yet. I have the materials, just have to get out there and do it. Marc.
