New appreciation for a 1911 Victrola VV-X
I started working on this 1911 Victrola VV-X table top restore thinking it was going to be simple like all the VV-IX i have done before but finding out there are lots of bead trim everywhere in addition to the wall of troy design around the top. Has a hood lock and even the horn slats are uniquely bent and well made. This is a very well made, impressive cabinet. I suspect it will be a real beauty when complete. As usual, was pretty beat up when i got it.
