Hello all,
I recall reading somewhere that in the late 1910s Victor introduced four spring motors on the more expensive machines, but I cannot remember where I read this. What year was the four spring motor introduced, where there any improvements to the design over time, and what models were equipped with them?
Thanks in advance!
Gerald.

There are some really good reference books available such as Look For The Dog and The Victor Data Book.. They are both a wealth of information at modest cost.

Don’t know how this got onto the APS website as I originally posted it on the TMF website with Harold’s permission.

Back in January 2014 Harold graciously gave permission to post his latest version of the Victor Motor Guide on the APS website.JohnM wrote:Don’t know how this got onto the APS website as I originally posted it on the TMF website with Harold’s permission.
