Does anyone in the UK have for sale either of the following (for metal fingerplates, from any gpo series).

I need to replace a couple of fingerplates, but I only have the metal fingerplate itself - so need the metal front dial card holder and also the part which sits directly behind the fingerplate (and if someone could please tell me what the heck these parts are called I'd be grateful).  :-[

Thanks.

I have a very good friend that lives in the north of England (Darlington) that is a telephone collector and restorer. I am certain that he would have the components that you need for your GPO dial. I will contact him today on your behalf, and get back with you.
