I am interested in finding color factory literature, trolley cards, and magazine advertisements for the Credenza and other 8-series Victor machines.
Thank you,
Gene

I actually have a scarce color catalog of the 1928 lineup, including the 9-55, 8-35, etc. It's pretty rare. It's not very big, maybe a bit smaller than the size of your hand. If you're interested, let me know, and I'll see if I can dig it out.

I have a catalog I don't want to sell, but if you want scans drop me a line.

Gene,
I have this nice color ad for the early two door Credenza. I think it might be from the cover of a magazine.
There's no date on it.
I was going to have it professionally framed someday as I think it would really look nice hanging up on a wall.
There's a small tear at the top,otherwise its in pretty good shape. Colors are nice.
If you want it..it's yours.

Gene...
I thought I might share some examples of framing I've done that you can do to the nicer color ads
that you might come across in your search. They really need to be properly preserved for posterity.
I have this one hanging on the wall above my Victor VI. This one hags near my Victrola VV-111
The framing wasn't to expensive but I think more than worth it for the results that will
be appreciated by some future collector when they hang above their machines.

Hey Frank,
If you like those two, I can give you a good deal on the pair.
