The Standard Model X / X2 and other Columbia machines use the combined speed control with plunger brake. Sorry, could not find a cleaner picture. :oops:

Hope that helps.

Many Brunswick machines are as you describe, with braking done at the governor. Sorry, no pics...

It is a decca dulcephone a GENUINE 1914 trench gramophone and I need to create a new brake mechanism as mine is completely missing, I also would like the start stop plate.

Thanks, Jake
