Attaching Victrola Data Plate

Post by Victrolacollector »

I need to attach a Victrola data plate to my machine.

What was used to do this? Were these nails or brads? What length or size?

Looks like steel escutcheon-pins on my 1909 L-Door and 1927 Orthophonic.

Brass (?) escutcheon pins on my 1918 XI.

You can purchase small brass pins. If they are a bit long, just snip them at an angle. Jerry
