Re: [Phono-L] Paper cone for Polly Portable
I am not at home right now, but might have a spare. I'll let you know whether I've got one when I return home on Tuesday. In the meantime, if you're interested in that, how about sending me your email address off-line so we don't need to bother everyone with our correspondence. -Original Message- From: phono-l-boun...@oldcrank.org [mailto:phono-l-boun...@oldcrank.org] On Behalf Of Chris Kocsis Sent: Tuesday, September 08, 2009 12:57 AM To: Antique Phonograph List Subject: [Phono-L] Paper cone for Polly Portable I just bought a Polly Portable Phonograph in good condition, but the paper cone speaker is rather worn and doesn't hold together very well. It's also lost a lot of stiffness, which I assume is necessary for best performance. Does anyone make a replacement or know of a spare?

Re: [Phono-L] Grafonola louver help needed
Hi Eric, The measurements off our Princess is 3 1/16 x 12 3/16. They are tapered from the center(long way) to the edges. Hope this helps. -Scott Denise Corbett -Original Message- From: phono-l-boun...@oldcrank.org [mailto:phono-l-boun...@oldcrank.org] On Behalf Of est...@localnet.com Sent: Friday, September 11, 2009 8:43 AM To: phono-l@oldcrank.org Cc: phonol...@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Phono-L] Grafonola louver help needed Hello- I've just bought a Columbia Princess Grafonola missing it's louvers (see this forum thread for pictures http://forum.talkingmachine.info/viewtopic.php?f=2t=2735) If anyone out there has one of these machines I'm looking for measurements: there's not much hope of finding originals.

The 50 I have has louvers that are longer but look like the same width. Perhaps you could modify some rather than starting from scratch with new wood.

Did you check with George Vollema? Has a two warehouses full of stuff. He keeps every scrap of veneer and bits and pieces of cabinets. He is a super guy to work with, too.
