Zonophone Traveling Arm Help Needed

Post by JerryVan »

I have a couple of these arms to repair. They are both missing the small insert on the underside, that supports the horn cradle. I seem to recall that the insert is formed to fit the curvature of the "nub" at the back of the arm. However, I've also seen inserts that are just plain round, like a bushing. Can someone please post a photo of an original Zono arm, with its insert intact? Thanks in advance!!!!
