[mdelrossi]

sorry for the cross post but i'd like to get all opinions.

Ok, I was lucky enough to come across an old Scott radio console complete with radio and speaker ( the phonograph was replaced).I took out the radio and speaker to get the cabinet into my crv. i placed the radio and speaker into the car and promptly hit a bump in the road.
Not till the next day did I realize I really messed up and put a hole in the cone.
I feel like an a$$ the speaker is an Altec 604 Duplex from 1946 and was in perfect condition. Damn. I searched the web and came up with a few possible ideas
get it re-coned

or

The other idea would be to repair it my self with tissue paper and glue.
what should I do all constructive suggestions welcome I feel horrible enough as it is.
Here are a few photos of the victim

thanks for all of your help
