The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I am offering for sale the Victrola VIII that I purchased based on a craigslist photo. I only paid $75 for the machine but found that it's more of a project than I expected. Victor used oak as the core wood and it's difficult to tell, from a small photo, that the veneer was missing from the top of the lid, the right, left, and back sides of cabinet. The reproducer is a non-original replacement. The motor runs fine and is correct (two springs in one barrel). All the knobs are original. The crank, tone arm, turntable, and motor board with all the hardware are original and correct. I will sell for $65 or let me know what parts you need. Thanks, Jerry
