- Back Bracket & Tone Arm
- Crank, "drop off" style, with open hole at the top end
- Brake lever, (not shown below)
- Record hold-down nut, (I can buy a reproduction if need be) FOUND

I have a reproduction turntable coming soon from a kind TMF member. Still needing the other stuff, however. Anyone?

I now have the turntable & record hold-down nut, as well as a leather elbow. A proper reproducer is on the way. Progress!!


Still needing the rest, (mainly, the arms, crank & horn). I don't have a lot of trading stock, but if that helps, let me know what you're looking for.

Thanks!
