For....
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

You can try posting a Wanted Ad to see if someone has one in their parts drawer. I also found this site that has some that depending on the model you are asking about might work.

Hi Don,

You might want to check the gallery for similar sets like the 38-12 and several others along with the '39 ones. The ones I've worked on I've almost needed dynamite to the pointer off. You can double check the part# to be sure. To me they all look the same. Give Julie McCall a try.
