Updated - bad reproduction 1941 plastic escutcheon

Ron Ramirez Wrote:As far as I know, Larry is the only person making these. He supplies Radio Daze and anyone else who may be reselling them.

Anything else than Larrry's work is second rate. I've seen Philco buttons sold by another vendor in two colours IIRC. Only Larry's were perfect...

Maybe making the holes was not possible/practical? Isn't there a way to add them? Using a Dremel maybe?

I have a "secretary" (slanted front) Philco ro restore, I need to order the bezel and knobs, maybe I'll have to address
that little problem eventually.

BTW, I wouldn't call them "bad reproductions". I could send you to sellers doing _really_ bad repros...;o)
