Anyone know what type of gaskets are needed to rebuild a Victor Number 4 
reproducer? They appear to be somthing kind of flat like a Number 2, but larger 
around. Does anyone sell these gaskets?

Thanks

Dan

I had dealings with both of those men when I was a beginner, back in  the 
early 1970's, and I was not happy with either transaction. One of them sold  me 
an "NOS" Edisonic reproducer for $125.00, which was about a week's pay, back  
then.
 
When I received the reproducer, I anxiously unpacked it, (the box was  nice), 
put on one of my favorite disks, (a no-no), and watched the grooves turn  
gray, as the reproducer screeched and squawked across the record.  After the 
damage was done, I looked at the needle more closely. The stylus was  mounted 
at a 
crooked angle in the needle bar, an obvious defect an "expert"  would have 
seen instantly.
 
I am beginning to think I've dealt with every person  of dubious integrity in 
the hobby.
