The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

This listing is for an oak VV-XVII. It would be nice to see more pics. It would also be nice in my house, but it is WAY to far from me.

To me, the finish looks suspect. Note no under-lid Victrola decal photo. My guess is it's been stripped. Other opinions?

Looks original to me. I don't believe any of the photos show the underside of the lid where you would see the decal.

Is there a picture if the inside, center section of the lid? The machine looks untouched in the 3 pictures that I saw from the link. I can't tell for sure, but it looks like the right front foot may have been broken at some time. Still a nice machine depending on what the rest of it is like.

If anyone in the group gets a look at this machine, please share your information.

Thanks
