I like the Pigmy model, the one that Steve shows on his avatar. It is a pretty machine with its metal grill and nice decal. Plays loud as well, despite the primitive wood horn.Steve wrote: Thu Aug 05, 2021 8:48 amAs I said previously these are not really very desirable in the UK. A really good Style / Model 1 without restoration, adornments, or replacement parts will fetch anything between £30 and £75 at auction or £75 and £120 on Ebay. The no. 1 was the cheapest model sold and therefore is quite commonly found today. I have two in my collection but they're both quite exceptional condition which makes them of interest to me and probably me alone.igic wrote: Wed Aug 04, 2021 8:44 pm All of my Victors are outside horn models. But this was the first. HMV I had ever seen in the US. It plays quite well, and I paid $200 for it. Is that about what it’s worth? I thought the exhibition reproducer alone was worth something.
