Found - Victor RE-57 Radio knobs

Post by Liamhamb30 »

I'm not exactly sure if what I'm looking for falls under radio or phonograph more or less but I'm basically in need of two wooden knobs for a RCA Victor RE-57 radio/phonograph machine. I have one of the knobs, for the main slider thing to select stations, but two knobs below it above the grill are missing. I assume they're the same as the slider. I need two of them. I know the RE-57 is derived somewhat from the RE-45 so perhaps those knobs work too, but I couldn't tell. If you even have any knobs similar in appearance to the one pictured please let me know. Pictures of the single knob up close are from the single knob on my machine, and the picture of the machine with all 3 is not mine. Got it from Google. Hope someone can help.

Best bet will be to post on the Antique Radio Forum. My favorite knob vendors are Marty and Julie McCall. I know Julie is active on the ARF as radiopup. There is a good chance they will have the knobs you are looking for.
