You may be lucky and find a screw to fit from a hardware store, just do not try and force it to work!  Show me a picture of the phonograph and another of the reproducer. that was a very common thing to do. About 1930 they made coated cardboard records of popular songs and sold them at news stands. They were called Hit of the Week. Record players made in the 1950's and the 1960's often had four speed settings, 78, 45, 33 and 16 rpm. The 78 position was for older records from the 20's to the 40's. The 45 and 33 positions were for respectively singles and LP's. The 16 rpm position was not used very often, mainly because it delivered poor sound quality. It doubled the playing time and was used for spoken-word records like plays and talking books.[/QUOTE]
