Post by cheryla »

Did the Victor V phonograph have a 10-inch or 12-inch turntable?

All Victor V's came with a 12" table.

It's pretty easy to measure what size is needed spindle to brake... but yes 12"

Depending on when it was manufactured, it would have been fitted with either a cast-iron or a stamped metal turntable. (I don't know, for sure, if the stamped metal turntable will fit an earlier model.) The serial number would provide a clue.

It may have a 12" yielding turntable which would be a different type.
