Can anyone tell me the size of the set-screw used in a Triumph A to attach the 
governor to its axle?  Anyone have a spare one of these screws to sell?
Thanks.

Unless mine was repainted before I got it in the 1970s, I did not detect any
painted grain.  I matched the color from what was protected under the horn
elbow because the rest of the paint was in bad shape.  I suppose they might
not have continued the grain effect under the elbow though.  It's nice to
know that I have a rare example in my steel and brass horned type 6.

The brass and steel Victor "VI" (or more appropriately; 6) horn is shown in 
"Antique Phonograph Accessories & Contraptions" on page 20 in full color.
The 
faux mahogany graining makes what would be a nondescript horn something 
extraordinary.  It may not have the flash of the No.24B or the mass appeal
of a 
mahogany No.31, but I'd bet that it's the rarest of the horns meant for the
Victor 
"6/VI."
