TRANSFORMER TO RESTORE - DO YOU KNOW ANYONE?

D***it!

Today I disassembled the PHILCO 20 speaker transformer, which I mentioned before in a different topic, looking for a lucky torn wire of the primary. When I finished cutting the waxpaper right over the "broken" lead, I noticed a small black spot on teh paper, that looked burn. I buzzed it, and it buzzed to the rest of teh primary.
Which means - I have to re-wind it or to look for a new one (I'd prefer the latter - I was never good with winding things).

Does anyone know where I can either get a XFMR (I need for PHILCO 20 version, with centertap), or restore the old one?

My best, Mike
