All of the cones I have found so far have foam surround. I got lucky and bought several 8 inch cones on eBay a few years ago. The center holes are a bit small, but that is easily corrected by carefully cutting with a good knife. The depth is perfect for Philco "K" series speakers but too deep for Philco "S" speakers which need a shallower cone. The surround requires a bit of trimming as well to fit the pincushion frame.
You're doing a fine job with those speakers, Bob!
