Intro and a quick Q

[Steve-H]

All,
First off, excellent site you have here ! Im just getting into the whole antique radio world, but I've been nuts about tube items for quite some time. In any event, I picked up an old Stewart Warner Radio/Phonograph a couple of days ago with the intent on an resto. I have ordered up new caps, along with a new output tube (as the one in there was shot...) and new rectifier for good measure (not knowing how long they used it with a crapped out output tube...).
In the meantime, Im looking for some information on the record player...Its obviously not the original (as the previous owner put in a plate to hold this new one in), but I believe it isn't a bad unit. Plugging it in directly, the motor works, etc, so for the time being, I'll keep it. However, I do need a new needle (but Im pretty sure the cartrage is fine)...Any suggestions on where I can source one ? Also, if anyone has any idea as to what the original phonograph was, can you please let me know ? I'd be interested in seeing if I could completely 'restore' this unit.

And, for the pics:









Thanks !
Steve
