1929 highboy cabinet door pulls
#3

I recently acquired a model 87 with one broken (and loose) door pull. I was able to unscrew it. The door has a hold bored in the front not all the way through that holds a metal disk with a hole in the middle that traps a screw in the center of the hole. The pull threads onto the end of the screw and tightens down on the front of the door. It is a standard right hand thread. I don't have the screw in-hand at the moment, so I can't tell you the exact size and thread (or whether it is a modern size and thread). My disk has come loose and no long properly traps the screw, so I am planning to pull it out and set it back in, probably using hide-glue to hold both the disk and screw.

If anyone has a spare set of door pulls for this radio, I would love to hear from you. I will be searching...
