could it be one of their systems where you tied put a stop at the speed you wanted and moved the on/off lever to that spot? How about a picture?

It was one of the "New Columbias' that came out when the Columbia Graphophone Company emerged from bankruptcy. It has sort of a pyramidal lid. It is beautifl inside, needs refinishing outside. My dilemma is this: The on/off switch and speed control linkage are disengaged from each other, and there is another part screwed to the underside of the bedpalte that seems to link them together somehow. Since there is no repair book on this, and I don't know how the linkages engage (believe me, there's no obvious way that makes sense), does anyone have a late grafonola of which they could take pictures? I need to see the underside of the top plate in the on/off switch area. The top plate is actually rectangular, not the round or shield shaped plate. Any guidance is appreciated.
