Just acquired a Philco 41-240 and am starting a cosmetic rehab on it. I am in need of a new escutcheon. I have done a bit of research but it seems that the one person who made them has passed and am wondering if anyone knows anyone that is still making them?

Thanks!

Welcome to the Phorum!

I'm not aware of anyone making that eschutcheon. Might try placing ad in our Wanted section to see if anyone might have one. Otherwise you may have to find a donor set.
Cheers,
Bob
