I did not know that historic circassian walnut veneer was even available. Your Victrola is sensational and will be enjoyed for generations. Thanks for sharing your efforts with the forum. Congratulations.

Just an amazing restoration. The possible you do immediately, the impossible takes a little longer.

Thank you's go out to all for the kind words. The inspiration to complete it is partly due to your encouragement and support. I'd like to also thank Lori, who had the vision to see the project through, with me. We will be on to the next project shortly, perhaps the VV XVIII or the Troubadour. Cheers, Russie and Lori!
