I am in a Dixieland band that played at the Oaks Ames house at Borderland
State park in Easton MA today.   The house is like a time capsule and I
asked if there were any antique phonos in the place.  I was shown a nice
Victor Granada that they demo to school kids.  Unfortunately, the reproducer
shell is cracked.  The back part looks great though.  Does anyone have a
decent front shell or a serviceable reproducer they'd be willing to part
with?  I think they have a budget for things like this so it would not have
to be a donation.  I'm going to donate my time to give the unit a little
tune up and to seal up the joints.  I don't think it will sound as good as
it should until a better reproducer can be found though.
