Jan asks:
We are having the hardest time trying to find a replacement faucet for our 1950’s Crosley kitchen sink. It is a wall mount faucet on the cast iron sink. Can you help?
Jan, these are around – but the first place that I’d check, is deabath.com. They seem to be real experts in finding plumbing parts for vintage sinks and more. In addition, you can consider a Dishmaster, from dishmaster-faucet.com, their old-fashioned M76 model can be “wall-mounted.” Good luck!

Hi,
Just fyi, I bought replacement brackets for my vintage wall hung bathroom sink from DEAbath a month or so ago and they are fantastic. They also told me that they specialize in vintage Crane. Like Pam said, they may have just what you need!
We found a replacement for ours at The Faucet Parts Store in Arlington, TX (817 649-8919). It was by a company called Pioneer: http://www.pioneerind.com/bar.html
We replaced ours with model #210300, with a few adjustments it fit the old plumbing in the wall and took about an hour to complete.
Have you seen the Wall-mount single handle from Delta? Home Depot even has it in their on-line offerings, but is out there on the web at cheaper prices.
Here’s the Amazon link:

Wow, Jane, that is a great find! I’ll add it to the short list of kitchen faucet recommendations. Thanks!
I have a vintage kitchen sink w/attached drainboard that we had re-surfaced and are using along with the wall mounted faucet that I found by Glacier Bay at Home Depot. I am now looking for the soap dish that can be attached to the wall mount faucet as is pictured above. Any ideas on finding just the soap dish?
I am looking for a faucet and handles for a 1930’s kitchen sink. They are mounted on the sinks backsplash which is on a 45 degree angle. Everything I find is wall or flat mounted. Can anyone help me?
Evelyn, contact deabath.com — they are great with vintage Crane. Good luck!
