It is missing the tone arm, which I think also functions as the horn, given 
there is no place for a horn, and it appears the tone arm just fits in a very 
small hole at the right rear of the motor board.

I recognize finding such is like looking for a needle in a hay stack! *smile*

 

If anyone has a reference in any book, that I could get someone to look at and 
or has  a tone arm / horn etc., they would be willing to part with …..

 

Thanks in advance
