The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Just picked up a decent Standard Model A at the Brimfield, Mass. antiques show. I'm looking for a couple of things:

1) Knurled knob that supports back bracket. I have one but need another.
2) Diaphragm and gaskets for reproducer. If these are the same as for an Exhibition, let me know.
3) Possibly a horn. I have one, but it has been repainted jet black with household paint and brush strokes are obvious.

If you can help with the above, please let me know via PM.

Thanks!

Kevin

I don't recall about the diaphragm but the gasket tubing is slightly thicker than on an Exhibition.

Ps. I just molded a screw-in horn adapter, if you wanted to try to fit a different horn onto it.

Oh, if someone has the equivalent turntable with a "normal" spindle, I might be interested in that as well.

Thanks!

They had a couple different motors, but on mine a Grafonola spindle shaft and turntable fit right in.
