Edison Army & Navy -- grille?

I found an Edison Army & Navy phonograph some years ago, and I'm just getting around to thinking about restoring it. One thing I will need is a speaker grille, as mine is missing. I understand these were metal, kind of like the grille on an Amberola 30 (only larger, and green); can someone tell me if anyone has ever reproduced these? I imagine they must be very hard to find otherwise.

Yes, they are like I believe 4 Amberola 30 grills, before they were cut out. Possibly someone could braze some new ones together for you?

Brett Hurt was making them a few years ago. Your best bet would be to contact him about it.
