Thank you, Bob, Nathan, and Phlogiston, for the reply and the source for the cover. My radio looks a little better than yours did. I have the escutcheon and the dial. I don’t have the cover or buttons. I was wondering about how to treat the escutcheon, so thanks for the paint tip. Mine is brass colored, under all the dirt and nicotine. The dial, itself, has the dark amber color. I don’t know if it has darkened from a white color from age, light exposure, nicotine, or all of these, but kind of like the amber color. Are they supposed to be black and white?

Another problem is the dial lamp socket, the insulator on the inside was a hardened piece of goo, that crumbled when I tried to remove the bulb. I still have a good shell, spring, and center contact. I think I may be able to use a nylon washer to replace the insulator, like Ron has suggested.

Thanks for the replies.
