Elgin Stem Reco?

[jchicago]

I just bought a 35 Elgin Oriole, but the Torrington Deco stem broke during disassembly for shipping.
I need to replace the stem, but would prefer something stronger.

Does anyone have stem recommendations that would be appropriate for a 35 Elgin Oriole? I don't want people pointing at it saying, "That's the wrong stem!"

Thanks. I'm wondering if there are stronger, yet still appropriate alternatives.

You can get a steal neck from the same era.

Bingo. These appeal to me. I'm not sure if they're steel or not. Seem like it would be a good alternative.
