Victor motor guide

[JohnM]

Reading the posts about the parts needed for the VV-330 restoration made me think of a photocopy I have at home that is a guide to which motor goes in what Victrola(s). It is a photographic guide to the motors and very handy and informative. It was compiled by a Canadian gentleman whose name I can't recall. Since I'm on the road, I don't have it with me. Is anyone on the board familiar with this motor guide, and have a copy?

The guide was compiled by Harold Braker of British Columbia, Canada. I have a copy, which I had all but forgotten about until this thread. I believe I acquired it sometime around the mid 1990s.

Yes! Harold Braker! That's the one! I wonder if we could get permission to post the guide on the board. I hope I am wrong but I seem to remember that Mr. Braker is deceased.

I'm quite sure that Harold is alive and quite well in Vancouver, BC. Jerry Blais

Good to hear that, Jerry! It must have been me that I was thinking about! LOL!
Do you have Harold's contact info that you could PM to me?

What a great guide that would be! Keep us informed John, as I certainly would be interested in obtaining a copy of that.
