Thanks! I always publish the video a day or two before taking them out to Johns Road Antiques. So watch for one you like!

I ordered a dial from RadioDaze for my 1400H and it was just a dial with no cover, didn't see any like this. I ended up making a cover from a strip cut from a Smart Water bottle. Were they originally like mine or yours?

These Stromberg models had a couple of different dial face configurations and colors. The one on my video was the original on that particular radio. The dial faces from Radio Daze come flat and you have to carefully bend and round them to get them in place. If you received a glass faceplate that was an error. If it was plastic, it needs to be bent into place. I am not aware of any models that were built with a flat inner faceplate and a clear external one.

I have seen some that have separate dials and covers. My dial doesn't look wide enough to fit, but the water bottle strip fits perfectly.
