Today, I offer another high-quality reprint. This is a single page flyer of instructions for removing and replacing Victor springs. A hugely useful item, if only to see which way that darn spring goes back into the spring barrel. Of course, the one you receive won't have COPY written all over it!
The price is $2.00 plus shipping to you. I don't accept PayPal, but checks are fine. I'll have copies at the Stanton Auction, be sure not to miss that!
Contact me at [email protected] with interest.

This does not look like fun---and barehanded, yet!

Hands were stronger back then. You could control a spring using only a thumb and one finger.

I've never used gloves when removing and reinstalling mainsprings. Even with an Edison diamond disc. Victrola motors are a piece of cake.
