> Hello all
> Here is a very unusual item - it is an Exhibition reproducer back flange, but
> it is in a brass shell. I first thought it was an a brass flange that
> someone had made, but when I removed it from the reproducer, I found that the
> brass portion was only a shell with the rubber flange inside of it. This is a
> great way to keep an old flange from warping, I guess...has anyone ever seen
> this before? The rubber flange was old, but it seems as if it may be a hair
> thinner than a regular Exhibition flange. The brass shell is about .050
> inches thick at the sides and perhaps .139 inches thick on the top surface.
