NEEDED: Swatch of Original Orthophonic Victrola Grille Cloth

Post by Garret »

Hello,

Does anyone have a piece of original grille cloth from an orthophonic Victor Victrola that they are able to spare that measures roughly 6" x 6"? I am looking into the possibility of reproducing about 2-300 yards of the stuff, but the textile manufacturer needs a sample from which to work that is bigger than the 2" cutting that I have. If so, please send me a private message.

Thank you,

Garret

That'd be great if your project works out! There's nothing out there right now that really looks correct, and I'm sure you'll have lots of interest when this happens. Thanks for taking this on!
