Getting my refurbished Frankfurt back soon and I'm looking for the correct knobs with silver centers, like in this picture.
Thanks, Michael

I should look into printing these knobs if there’s not a huge supply of them

Interesting thought. They (the originals) have a tactile feel that the printing media may struggle to replicate. But if you succeeded, I think this is a good item!
 
Okay, I found the info. That said, it is not what I remembered. PM me if interested in "the rest of the story".
 
I have a spare set. Perhaps check with @autokunst paid at Vintageblau and reduce accordingly.

Thanks Markos. I'll PM you.
Vintageblau is actually who just repaired my Frankfurt. He quoted me $165 for the knobs-- which almost makes the cost to fix my radio seem reasonable.

Wow. Wow. Wow. I'll share that I discovered I was wrong. I bought the silver levers that sit behind the knobs from Vintageblau - not the knobs. The levers were MUCH less than what they charged you for the knobs. I actually paid much less than that for a pair of knobs from Enoz (lists driving lights on this site often). They were far from perfect, but also about a third of what Vintageblau charged you. Okay, that was full disclosure.
 
PM response for transparency on pricing...

They aren't exactly rare, but they aren't easy to buy without purchasing a $300 radio. What if we cut it in half and say $80 shipped? That's $72 plus and $8 flat rate. I'll snap some pics this weekend.
 
I needed a pair, and got them from Vintageblau. I found that these knobs are hard to come by, and cost more than any two knobs should cost. But as you know, we have to have them. ;)

They never responded to my emails.
