Re: Treasures from the Wayne Show
Here is my new to me 130, (my sidetracked treasure at Wayne). Found it in the home of the original owner. A family piece that the great grandchildren no longer wanted. If I hadn't gone to Wayne, I would not have found it for sale locally, (123 miles from the show near Philadelphia). Facebook Marketplace Local Buy and Sell can be a good place to look for treasure. It should look great after a good cleaning, (it even looks nice dirty). The XVII or 130 in this case are probably my favorites stylistically and the Oak makes it even better.

The show looked like a great one and that is one rock solid Victrola! Looks like a few gaskets and some grease and it'd be a keeper!

Re: Treasures from the Wayne Show
First, thank you for the nice comments regarding the Victrola 130. The only thing that I can really take any credit for is being in the right place at the right time.
My treasure seems to have hijacked the thread that I began. As much as I enjoy the having others voice their appreciation of this fine machine, I am still in hopes of seeing what treasures others were able to find at the show or as in my case, because they were in the area and happened upon a nice deal.
I wasn't looking to add another machine, so the show would have been a success for me just poking around, meeting people and finding some of the small items and parts that I have wanted. The Victrola was a nice surprise and it is a bit difficult to hide my pleasure in finding such a fine and unmolested machine in it's natural habitat. As others have said, they are still out there.
