dialcover.com / Mark Palmquist

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.

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 Guys,
Yes, I agree with you Mark is a big asset to the hobby and I have used his service many of times over the years.
Sincerely Richard

Thanks for posting that information. As folks have said, Mark has been a super supporter of the antique radio community!
