World Phonograph Company Parts

[tjnknox]

I am in need of the connection between the reproducer and tone arm used on a World Phonograph Company phonograph.  The original appears to be pot metal and is broken.

Can I get a picture of the whole tonearm? There are a few supplier tonearms on eBay that might work.

If these aren't right, you'll have to check with the parts suppliers in the hobby.

I have exactly the same problem and the tone arm looks the same - from a Silvertone aboout 1921 phonograph.  Did you find a fit to replace the damaged one?  I don't know what part might substitute if not the original. I have looked on EBay but don't know what would work.
