Motor Identification

[SonnyPhono]

I have some odds and ends around the house that I am going to sell on eBay. I don't have a use for any of them and have had them for awhile so it's time to eBay 'em.

One of the things I will be listing is the motor pictured below. I don't have my Victor Data Book at the moment and need to know what machines this was used on. Could anyone shed some light on which phonographs used this particular motor? I think the XVI used it, but am not sure which variations or if there are any others that may have used it as well.

Any help is appreciated as always!

I have that motor in my 1915 Victor XIV. It also would have been used in the XVI from the same era. Eventually Victor switched to a four spring motor but I will not know what year until I get home and look at the copy of the Victor Data Book I borrowed from you

Looks very similar, maybe even identical, to the motor in my XI, except mine is a two-springer not a three, as pictured. My XI dates to 1917.

Well. . . Guess we can check XI off the list

Looks like a motor from a VV-XVI made soon after the "L" door series. It would have been used in the XIV of the same period.

Please do a site search for the Victor Motor Guide thread I posted several months back. It has every Victor motor pictured and cross-referenced to what models they are for.

John,

I tried that yesterday and found the guide. But when I went through it, I didn't see anywhere where it listed the machines each motor accompanied. I saw where it told the crank location, etc. But nothing concerning a list or reference to Victrola models and their corresponding motors.

I may have missed it though as I skimmed the material. I will check again and see if I missed something. I appreciate you posting the guide though. It does have a lot of good information.
