Bakelite block caps
#14

Looks like your cord has a replacement plug on it which is reusable. Squeeze the two prongs towards each other and slide the plastic cover back. Then take the prongs fold them outwards. This will release it grip on the cord. Pull the cord out. Repeat in reverse order to install new cord. Wouldn't bother with a polarized plug as there isn't a shock hazard with this set. 1937 was the last year for cloth covered cords so if you have a pre '38 set it would be period correct for the cc other wise 20G zip cord is fine.

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 it!
