Great find, John----it's encouraging to the rest of us when a member has such good luck. Such a beautiful Victrola---and *with* the albums no less!

John,

That's a beautiful machine. Good score! It plays fine as it sits? Also, I know folks are hesitant to replace that pot metal back bracket, but as I've discovered, they are extremely prone to breaking, even if they don't look like it!

Best,

Garret
