Newbie Restoration Question - Philco 42-380
#1

Good day!

When I was a boy (a long, long time ago) I spent many unforgetable hours listening to our old Philco console... a 42-380.

Well, now that I have arrived at geezerhood, I really want to have a 42-380 once again. I have located one within driving distance and the wood looks to be quite good. Of course, it "does not work" so says the owner, but that can be overcome.

What I'm most concerned about is the plastic "bezel" around the dial and knobs... it is broken and the top part is missing. So, I'm wondering if there are "reproductions" of these old bezels available; or, absent that, is there another "fix" for such a problem.

Thanks so much!

Rob
