Hi
I am looking for a good quality scanned image of the inlay card, used in the Rock-Ola 442 record display windows (so that I can print my own). If anyone has one and would like to share please let me know. I have an excellent copy of the Aztec Sun Motif from the Rock-Ola 437, if you would prefer a swap.

Send me your e-mail address in a PM and I'll send it to you.
A few years ago I got a new "old stock" one of the last replacements from Victory Glass for my 443 and took a photocopy of it.
I've not seen a 442/3 where that record card insert hadn't faded. Same with the graphic. I re-made mine with overlapping cut down A4 sheets of coloured and frosted acetate to get the opaque effect.

Hmm..

I know, I did get it, that's why I came back at you in the same way.
Cheers!

I'm not into Smileys, I think "It's just me and Shakespeare now...."
Edit.
Perhaps the confusion came because I said "mine's a little belter?" Not "better."
We Brits have some quaint expressions, that have yet to reach the colonies.

Doghouse,
I saw the "L" in what I thought to be, "better", and, I guess incorrectly, ASSumed that it was a "typo"--
To quote "one of your own"--"Why, Can't the English learn to speak ?" Ron Rich

I'll have you know I went to a "proper grammar school" before the labour Party got in and dragged 'em down to the level of comprehensives.

Doghouse,
My "basic English" was "learnt" to me by an 87 pound, old lady teacher, in the last year of High School. She had a "Brookland" (NY) accent, and informed the class that we were "lucky" to have "THE Bitch", who was not going to "teach" us, but "learn" us, English. On the very first day of all her classes, she "informed" the students that she would "take no crap". She "enforced this", twice that I saw, by taking "shots" at the biggest "loud mouthed guy". One guy she approached and twisted his ear, till he "cried Uncle". The other one she smacked across the hands with her steel ruler--
One of these guys threatened to "talk to the Dean"-- she looked at him and "laughed", saying
"I don't think you want to go to him and admit that an 87 pound old lady, has you shaking in your boots--but, if that's what you wish--there's the door--go" He never got up---
