Victor V
Here is my new addition to the family. The horn is one of Eduardo's. He does a wonderful job. I probably should have wiped the dust off, but it just comes back. Merry Christmas to everyone.

That's a nice machine! I really like the look of those Victor outside horn phonographs, altough i don't know much about them, to be honest. When was the Victor V made, if i may ask?

Timo, The Victor V was produced from 1905 all the way into the 20's. This machine dates around 1909. The early models had the barrel brake and was changed in 1912 or 13 to a friction brake. Years ago I had a Victor V that had an automatic brake, but they are rare. I suggest you get Baumbacks Victor Data Book if you want to learn about the various models and years. It is the Bible when it comes to Victor products.

Re: Victor V
Okay. I think it's interesting that Victor produced a outside horn phonograph into the 1920s, as in the 1920s the internal horn phonographs were ruling the market. Did this model enjoy great sales in the 1920s?
