I know there are some excellent older threads on this topic. Unfortunately they are missing photos so apologies for reviving past well covered discussions
I picked up a Victor Junior (SN 2426) with the correct junior reproducer from a recent Donley auction. Apparently it used to be part of the Wayne Wolf collection. It cleaned up nicely and runs really well though it's certainly not pristine.
Inside the case was this adapter that allows an exhibition to be used as discussed in previous threads. I'd be interested to know if it's the original Victor Part E21 or a more recent reproduction. I'm guessing a reproduction, but still a nice surprise find.
Any insights or photos of an E21 adapter welcome

Re: Exhibition reproducer on Victor Junior
If I remember correctly the original part allowed a typical tapered arm Exhibition, with flange, to be used on a Victor Junior. Your part seems to include a rigid metal flange. I suspect yours to be a well made recent adaptor.

Re: Exhibition reproducer on Victor Junior
Thanks Jerry, John and Shawn for the information. Great to see an original one in a photo. As a new collector not having the lost photos in old threads is a real shame because of all the great information these threads have in them.
