Doses anyone out there have an extra Victrola crank escutcheon in a parts bin that would fit a VV-210 console type Victrola?

I would appreciate it. Please PM me.

Thanks,

AR

Somebody out there must have a spare escutcheon for a VV-210. It doesn't have to be in the best shape.

Please let me know.

There's a few on eBay right now, although personally, I would balk at the asking price. (But, I'm cheap like that...)

JerryVan,
Yeah, I've seen some on eBay but was hoping to find one from a forum member at a reasonable price.

Can you post a photo from another machine with the same escutcheon? I assume you need a nickel one. Jerry Blais

Jerry, here's a photo from a similar machine on eBay. The escutcheon looks like it is antique bronze, but nickel would be fine too. I'm just looking for the right estucheon that is presentable to cover the hole and do it's job. Thanks, AR

This crank escutcheon is very common. I was used from 1917 on. It was used on portables, table tops through the uprights and consoles like yours.

Harvey,

Thanks for the information. I was hoping someone on the forum would have one to sell at a reasonable price since they are so common.

Unfortunately, I don't have one of these. I have seen these on ebay between $10-$15, give or take a little bit.

There are some on eBay going for $20+ which is pricy. Hopefully someone on the forum has one for a reasonable price but no luck so far.
