Would the Indian Teak HMV 102 have had a Chrome key, to match the chrome lock etc I wonder ?epigramophone wrote: Sat Oct 15, 2022 4:49 amIt does, and here it is again :poodling around wrote: Fri Oct 14, 2022 11:37 amIt is such a shame that your photo has disappeared.
May I ask please, does the plaque on your teak 102 state W102C ?

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.
