I think this is about the most appropriate forum for me to share this in, though this isn't truly Philco-specific.  Not sure if people had occasion to take note, but as of June 1, on dialcover.com, there is now basically a splash page announcing that Mark Palmquist will be retiring from manufacturing reproduction dial covers on July 1, 2026.  He is apparently willing to sell the operation for inventory, molds, and a little apprentice training.

Wasn't sure if it was common knowledge but figured it might be noteworthy for this community.

Best wishes,
Roy

Wow, that's a setback.
Mark is ... one of the pillars of this hobby. Whoever tries to replace him will find those huge shoes to fill waiting in the corner.
