FOR SALE: Misc Cylinder and Disk Parts - $15.00

Post by Shawn »

Okay, there are only three parts here, but if you can use them, here they are.
  • Original foot sleeve for an Edison Crane

    Crank Escutcheon for a Victor

    Unknown (probably from a Crane) part
The price is $15.00 for all three, plus shipping. No PayPal on this, but checks are fine.

Please contact me with interest at: [email protected]

Thank you

I think the "unknown" part is the lower part of a TizIt...

You are correct Curt, It does look like part of a Tiz-It.

For those unfamiliar...the Tizit would fit onto the Cylinder reproducer neck and the horn connected to the other end, the tizit would swivel to allow the horn more freer movement when moving across the record.

Normally I would agree with your assessment on the mystery part, but it is much more heavily cast than any Tiz-It that I have ever seen. It is heavier, with much thicker walls and different dimensions. That is why I thought it might be from a crane.

Yes, I can see that thickness, but the circular wear marks around the ball originally lead me to believe it's a TizIt... although it certainly could be the end of a tube on one of the heavy duty cranes and the marks might just be from whatever... If the opening on the end of the piece is not large enough to fit on a reproducer, then it is probably as you said - just hard to tell the diameter of the opening from the pic...
