If you can't find a better picture of this dial ( and I know how hard it is with obscure model radios that no one has pictures of online ) you can probably use the picture you have there as a reference and create a new one. The trick would be making sure all the measurements are right and that all the numbers are of a suitable font and in the right positions.

I've seen Reece recreate a fairly intricate dial for a rare Firestone radio, so I'm certain the same could be done for a simple design like yours. It if were me, the only thing I haven't tried is turning the numbers so that they would wrap around the curved dial properly. Putting them in a straight line is a lot easier!

I'm really fond of Zenith's myself, and I've never seen a radio like the one you have there. I hope you get it going and post some pictures. Posting in the forum, you'll likely have the only clear pictures of this radio anywhere on Google!
