Am trying to source some escutcheon screws for my 41-300. Pretty sure that Philco used the same small screws on most of there escutcheons thru the 30's and early 40's. Older ones where painted black.
Anyway I don't have an accurate way to measure the diameter. My best guess is a number 3 but not sure. Anyone know what it is??
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
