Does anybody have a Knabe-Crystola? Need Crank Info
Posted: Sat Dec 29, 2018 12:51 pm
Greetings, I have a Knabe-Crystola and am seeking a crank. I assumed that a typical off brand female phonograph crank would work but not so much....
So, my request is this: is anybody on this forum in possession of one of these machines and could you snap a photo of your crank (or motor) or tell me a little about it?
Important Note: As a side endeavor to my other historical work, I have been researching the Crystola and the Knabe-Crystola is slightly different that the Crystola put out by the Crystola Co. Ltd. I also have a Crystola made by the Crystola Co. Ltd. and the motor and crank is completely different. I have already attempted that route... so, I am looking for crank/motor photos for a Knabe-Crystola specifically.
As usual, my requests can tend to be obscure and a long shot because they are not Edison/Victor/Columbia related, but where better to ask than this forum? LOL.
Thanks in advance!
