Eldridge Johnson's Taper Arm Patent

Post by FloridaClay »

As mentioned in another thread, I am currently restoring a Victor III. As some of the tone arm swivel bits are missing and I wanted to know more about exactly what those bits were and how they functioned, I dug around on the net and found this, which looks like it might be Johnson's original taper arm patent. Thought you might find it interesting.
