The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I recently picked up a Victrola portable 2-35. The needle thumb screw is missing. Where is the best place to order a replacement from? Thank you.

Where are you located?

You could try George Vollema or possibly Wyatt Marcus.

The Victor orthophonic reproducer uses the same thumbscrew as a Victrola # 2 reproducer:

Thanks to all of you. I ordered 2 reproductions from the phonograph shop. (I also plan to 'shake down' the case to see if a loose thumb screw resides inside somewhere.)
