I rebuilt my HMV no. 4 recently just using the white gasket material used on Exhibitions, et al and had wondeful results! I think the original gasket was one piece that fit around the entire mica. It was about the same thickness as the red ones used in Victrola No. 2s. As I said, the white gaskets worked just great on mine.
