I have a chance to pick up a Spencerian Westphono Inc portable, but it has no crank, so it's a crapshoot that it's operational.
Anyone have an idea of the type of crank it would use? I know there are so many variables. Thank you

You get a reasonably good look at the crank in this video.
It appears to be a sleeve crank.

Haha, no worries. Thank you for the video. I saw that video prior to posting my question. I can't tell if it's slotted, or if it has female threads.

Well, I'll never know. Smack in the middle of back and forth messaging between me and the seller, he says the player is sold, and marks his ad as such.
