Seek Escutcheon For Coin-Op Polyphon, Adler, Etc.
By Jere Ryder

Hi All,  One of the next restoration projects we're launching into
this winter is for a Model 370, 26" Fortuna Orchestrion disc box in
the Guinness Collection.  We're searching for two things:

a) A good set of photos and a few critical measurements of an original
gallery for this model.  Refer to Bowers' Encyclopedia, page 242.

b) An original or even a reproduction casting of the coin escutcheon,
measuring 95 mm height x 45 mm width.  See attached photo.

Help in locating either of these items would be greatly appreciated.

All best,

Jere Ryder
Morristown, New Jersey
