With regard to David Evans' 20-5/8" unidentified discs, while
I can't identify them I think I can help eliminate possibilities.
Criterion and Olympia boxes in the 20+" size did not have such
a large center post. The sister box, the Euphonia,, however, did.
_But_ 99 percent of all F. G. Otto products had discs made of zinc,
not steel. I've had maybe a dozen steel 15-3/4" Criterion discs,
but I have never seen nor heard of a steel disc in the 20+" size.
Regina made a 20-3/4" disc size which had a larger center hole.
If you have reproduction discs ("bright tinned") they could be just
a shade off the original diameter. Most of the European disc boxes
did have a larger center hole.
Perhaps you could send a picture or specs of the discs to Lester
Jones at Renaissance Discs and see if he recognizes them?
Good luck with it!
