Victrola Identification

Post by gemering »

Is this a Victrola XII?
Looks to be oak?
Refinished?
Value?
I've been away from the hobby for several years.

Thanks,
Gene

It's an early table model VV-XI. Oak is very scarce for the table model VV-XI. I would buy it very quickly if the price is fair.

Thanks Doug,
I knew it was either an XI or XII.
The gold finish fooled me.

Yes, those old steam radiators are killers!

I've been focusing on restoring this 1913 Ford over the past few years.

I have one of these scarce tabletops, and while mine was painted black I can tell that once I get it refinished it'll be beautiful. This one looks like itll be there already!

Both XII variants have really short doors.

Hey Gene, A Brass Era T that looks all original--- WOW, with acetylene headlights. The table model XI is nice and fits in nice with the era of the car.
