It is such a shame that your photo has disappeared.

May I ask please, does the plaque on your teak 102 state W102C ?
It does, and here it is again :
Would the Indian Teak HMV 102 have had a Chrome key, to match the chrome lock etc I wonder ?

Chrome locks had chrome keys, but relatively few survive. Black painted locks had black keys.
There is an eBay seller who regularly lists gramophone keys, and some people actually buy them.
I like my machines to be complete, but £20, £30 and more for a key? I don't think so.
