Questions on a Modernola
Does anyone out there have a Modernola? I picked up a case at auction but it's missing the books, motor, motor board tonearm and lamp parts. Can you tell me who made the motors and tonearms for these, or even better take a picture of the ones in your machine?

The arm in this image is definitely a Heineman arm, and I'd guess that it had a Heineman "Motor of Quality"

Re: Questions on a Modernola
The Meisselbach motor was retailed by Otto Heineman, so that accounts for theOkKEH trademark.
