In addition to the lovely models in this commercial, there are a couple quick glimpses of a Victor III and perhaps an Edison C19 or 250 in this youtube clip:

For those not otherwise distracted, The Victor III appears to have a No. 2 reproducer, not an Exhibition! ;)

It's a pretty quick glimpse. You've got sharper eyes than me! :) Am I right about the other machine?

I saw this commercial last night and of course spotted the Victor pretty quickly. I didn't notice the Diamond Disc player (seen briefly in the background at about 0:15), nor did I notice that they are clearly playing an Edison disc on the Victor!

Wow they are playing the DD on the Victor! Pity all those people involved in the production will go away thinking "that's as good as it got back in the 1700s"

The upright in the background looks like an Edison Chppendale, possibly with the grill out.

Can anyone tell me what part of the video where we can see Victor and also the Edison Phonos? I was little bit confused where is it.

The Victor was the very first machine shown, at the start of the commercial. The Edison is 15 seconds in, seen in the left background.
