Exposition Reproducer

Post by Go2Joe+2 »

Hello everyone: My best friend of 42 years passed away and while cleaning out his house I came across this reproducer. The condition is new. Can anyone give me some history on this, what it goes to, age, value, how I should list it for sale. I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

Hello,

This is quite an interesting reproducer because it is a copy of the famous 'Exhibition' reproducer. It is unashamedly using a similar sounding name, script and design as the Exhibition that was used by Victor and affiliates overseas. This German built copy could have been used on many machines and may have been sold as an upgrade. It is likely to date to the 1910's to mid 1920's.

The germans copied quite often during the early twenties. (like the japanese and chinese thereafter) I have one simular soundbox. Exact he same measures as 'Exhibition' - but its a 'no-name'.
