The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Garret,

WOW, $2660 for the one on line seems low. I guess who ever bought it got a great deal.

PM sent for more details.

That's great information. Do you know the selling price at the auctions?

I have #5785 Victrola XX (VTLA)

Stanton's sold #5786 Victrola XX (VTLA) on 11-17-17 $7,870
Stanton's sold #8330 Victrola XX (VTLA) on 11-18-17 $5,500
Donley's sold #8288 Victrola XX (VTLA) on 3-17-18 $12,000
Stanton's sold #7067 Victrola XX (VTLA) on 11-16-18 $3,850
eBay sold one #8533 Victrola XX (VTLA) no date

The above prices are hammer prices and do not include any buyer fees.
Also with out serial numbers it may be hard to get a total. I know #5786 was from Bob Johnson's collection, I believe he had four Victrola XX's when he died.

Larry,

Thanks for the pricing information!

Considering the XX is supposedly the holy grail of production upright Victrolas, I would have thought most of the auction hammer prices would have been closer or more than the one that sold for $12K.

The tally is up to 28, any more...

Isn't There a XX in the Jasper Sanflippo collection?

I have serial number 5792, it has the gold decorations.

The tally is up to 29 possibly 30. Any more XX's out there?

AR

This is my XX with gold trim. Serial #8533

Better photo...

Not Mine. This could be another. Considering how rough the before picture is, I have to agree this one had to be restored.
