A day ago a 1908 Victor catalog was listed for sale on eBay and I missed it by $1... did anyone on here get that particular item? The seller also had a 1908 record catalog.
My question is this: since I didn't get to see the entire catalog, only specific pages in the listing... it listed the Auxetophone and I am wondering if the Victrola XX was also included. Does anyone have this catalog and if so, would it be possible to get a copy? Or, better yet, does anyone have one they would sell?

Re: QUESTION... About Victor Catalog
I have reprints of a catalog printed by a large Victor jobber. It shows "The Cabinets That Match" for Victors I through VI as well as machines including the Auxetophone, VV-XX and the Victor Junior with the flower horn. It also shows the lettered brass bell horns and the numbered Flower horns. The catalog is only $7 postage paid (US and Canada). I'll return your money and you can keep the catalog if you're not happy with it. It is full of great information. Send $7 to:

Re: QUESTION... About Victor Catalog
Sorry, I've been busy but it isn't too risky an investment. I've sold several of these to Forum members in the past. I'd appreciate any comment from prior buyers. Best wishes, JerryI'll return your money and you can keep the catalog if you're not happy with it.

You can always buy an original when one comes up....Curt A wrote:Thanks for the help...
So, it is best to ask a seller if what your looking for is present.... prior to committing.
