FOR SALE: Victor Smooth Wood Horn $950 - MACHINE SOLD

[Phonomark]

Fellow Forum Members

I have a beautiful Victor IV (SOLD) and Smooth Wood Horn available for $950.

• The horn is also an original smooth small horn. The finish has an unusual crazing to the shellac surface, but I think its original. You decide.

• There's some minor veneer seam separations around the inside of the bell. Looks worse in photos than in person due to the reflections.

• There's also some fine scratches around the inside of the bell.

Overall, this is a very presentable example of a mahogany smooth horn that is the perfect size for a Victor IV.

Attached are a few photos of the horn on a Victor IV. The Victor IV is not available. I can provide additional photos.

Reasonably priced at $950 plus approximately $75-$100 for specially built packing and FedEx Ground Shipping depending on how far away you live from CA. I'm an excellent packer, just ask around.

OR....I can deliver the horn to you (or one of your phono friends) at the Midwest Music EXPO in June at Schaumburg, IL.

Please send PM with interest or inquiry. First to tell me it's sold gets it. No holds or reservations. If you buy it and don't like it, I'll provide a refund. But, you will have to pay for return shipping.

Offers considered.

Thanks

You sure don't see the small smooth mahogany horn very often. Nice machine.

Very nice!!! I have to agree the smooth mahogany horn is VERY hard to find. Is the decal on the horn?

[Phonomark]

Hey Ken-

Good to hear from you. Look forward to seeing you in June.

There's no decal present on the horn. I'm not totally convinced that it is a Victor horn in that it has a slightly different metal collar than that found on a typical spear-tip horn. I'll scrounge up a pic of the collar and upload.

Here's a picture of the end. There's no patent information stamped on it.

The threaded hole in the locking pin suggests that the horn may be English, HMV.

Very nice horn. It compliments the cabinet nicely. I would be tempted but I already have this model and Victor horn. You don't see them this clean too often.

Here's an update. Machine has been sold. Horn is still available.
