Bought=Dial ring and plastic card holder for Stromberg Carlson 1244 Found 1 one on ebay but the guy said it was warped and yellowed. Or information where I might find one. Thank you for looking.

These are hard to find in good condition. All of them are warped & yellowed.

Yes Harry have been looking for months and today I posted this wanted and I found 2 on eBay new old stock by the picture looked good.

WOW! You got lucky. I searched for months and did not find any anywhere that were not already warped & discolored. I finally ended up just gluing a printed number card on it. I did get a few bad ones for free and tried to straighten & polish to no avail.

For us folks over the water that are not so familiar with S.C. Phones, could you add photos of the warped discoloured, and good ones. Thanks.  :)

Sonny has some new old stock St. Carl. dial blanks with number card holder -- but the number card holders are all warped. Don't know if it was the heat and cold or the age:
