PHILCO ANTIQUE RADIO SPEAKER cone/Re-Cone parts field coil

Here's a complete cone assembly, taken out of a Philco field coil speaker. This is the 10-11" unit.   I am doing a modern rebuild of the Philco speaker for better response,,,, and this was removed in process.The originals had barely any bass response, and an annoying "ice-pick" midrange response. The frames and motors are decent,, it's just that the stock cones needed some improvement.     Soooooo, I coated BOTH sides of the surround with black ReZon-Ex treatment, and the front edge with the clear stuff.No more cranky midrange beaming, much better bass response from a lower Fs, increased mass,and hopefully the surround will be good for another 80 years.    The entire assembly as shown is included, flange, coil, leads, and radial spider assembly,,,, so it's literally a drop in and center job.I repair old antique and vintage speakers too.......................I'll do free shipping on it, so it's like getting it for 5 bucks..........***********48 states ONLY   unless you contact me FIRST***********
