I need the 1" diameter female plug that plugs into the power supply, while the other end goes to the wall outlet. This is for a 1930 Edison radio. Thanks, Marc.

Does it look like any of these?

You might be able to find it here:

But if it's unique and proprietary, maybe an original is the only way to go.

Which model radio? There were 2 different connectors used, one had blade spacing same as modern plug/sockets the other had smaller blades with smaller spacing.

I'm talking about the R-6 Edison radio, which I think would be the same as the R-7 radio from 1930.

Chuck, The one I need is the top one with the 1" diameter. I think the small one may be for the C-2? Thanks for posting the pics!
