Unless someone here has it, I'd say, most escutcheons pop up on eBay from time to time.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

Hello and welcome.
I guess you are wanting the dial.
This company might have it.

The Radiodaze reproduction in the above post is the only one I know of.

The price may seem high, in many parts of the country a pizza is over 20 bucks, so everything is relative. I got a couple of things from them, the quality is OK, perfect no, but this stuff is unobtanium. Mark Oppat at Antique Radio Parts may be worth checking with. Paul B.
