Here is my late "fish mouth" or "dolphin" Vic-B that I talked about earlier. Does anybody know off hand what the one in Larry Schlick's auction sold for? That one had an earlier reproducer though.

I really can't pick one favorite Victor machine, so I'll go with my most unique
I agree with Sean, it's hard to pick a favorite Victor but a unique one is easier to single out. Here's a Victor V in a Douglas mahogany cabinet with spruce horn.

Larry, is there anyway I can convince you to do a thread on your wonderful mahogany Victor 5...??. This is one machine I'm sorry I sold many years ago (not yours).
Anyway, just thought I would ask... ;)... :mrgreen:.

Yes, please make it a featured phonograph. We didn't have one in a while. That spruce horn is amazing.

Thanks

I would be happy to do a feature on the Victor V. It's a busy weekend so it will be a day or two. Thank you for the kind words they are very much appreciated.

Best Regards, Larry

I have several Victrola's and a Credenza that i like very much and they sound quite nice,of course,
but my Victor VI seems to get the most interest from friends and family..so I'll go with it as my favorite.
