WANTED: Columbia Grafonola "Favorite" Lid Support

Post by sabstage »

WANTED: Columbia Grafonola "Favorite" Lid Support - I have a very early Columbia Grafonola Favorite with the two doors. The unit has the escutcheon plate, but not the lid support mechanism. It appears the lid support was attached with a single screw (rather than the 4 screw version used on later Favorite models). Thank you!

Your written description and the term "lid hinge" seem to suggest two different things. At least in my mind. Can you post a picture showing what's missing?

I agree that a picture of what you have and need would help greatly. I might have what you need but a picture would help verify.

That's not a hinge. It's the lid support.

This is the lid hinge...
