Broken Ampico Drawer Switch
By Tony Marsico

The drawer switch on our Ampico A has bitten the dust, and I'm wonder-
ing whether there is anyone who has an extra drawer switch that still
works which he will sell to us at the museum?

Finding a replacement would be preferable, but failing that, is there a
way to fix the broken switch or to replace it with a modern switch?  I
don't know much about electricity and I've never had to do this before.
