I am looking for a knob to suit a 11-98 Kriesler radiogram. The same knobs are used on various Kriesler grams from mid 1960’s to early 1970’s.

Does anyone have one of these surplus to their needs?

I can post a pic if required.

Pete in Albury may have one spare.

Email me a pic and I'll ask him.

In the absence of a pic. I have sent Brad a pic of the tatty one I have that might be? Dia32mm.

For a view of the knobs, look at the video I posted above. Tippy explains that there was range of similar models (and they all have the same looking knobs).

Whilst there is a scrap 11-XX in the spares pile & don't know if its complete and its elsewhere. I ended up with around a bucket plus of knobs, from deceased estates. The front is one thing, but with knobs that look the same the back is often different, as is often their size. So one looks for the needle in the haystack?

The tatty one I spotted has E20.7271 embossed in the shell rear.
