SOLD: Early VV-IV With Steel Slat Grill & Exhibition Reproducer $350

Post by billbossus »

Here's a recent estate sale find. An early VV-IV with steel slat grill (c. 1911) and Exhibition reproducer. All I've done is wiped done the exterior and checked the motor. Motor spins and is able to play a complete record. Motor will probably need servicing. Speed adjust does not seem to work as it should. There's a layer of oxidation covering nickel plating on the tone arm, body of the reproducer, and crank. There is a small ⅜" split above the top right hand hinge on the door that will need to be repaired. There are 2 screws missing from 2 of the hinges. I replaced the flange on the back of the reproducer with a repro as the original flange was crumbling. Has the original felt on turntable and reproducer appears to not have been rebuilt. I can email additional photos if needed. Machine will be securely packed with new bubble wrap and foam chips for actual shipping cost from zip code 11772 on Long Island, NY. Will sell to first person that posts sold to listing. Paypal friends and family or USPS M.O. Please PM with questions. Thank you, Bill

This is a great machine... only problem is the reproducer, which should be a Victor "O"...
