The reproducer, tonearm and back mount hardware appear to be Victor or HMV. I don't recognize the cabinet. European, perhaps?

It's a German variant of a Victor I. The motor and mechanics are from a Victor I. The case and horn are German, I believe. I can't see all of the pictures. There might be a decal that say's Duetche Gramophon. Nice machine.

I believe it is a German Gramophone & Typewriter "Baby Monarch"
Like others have stated, it was based on the Victor I.
Looks like it has the wrong horn and elbow.
Here are a couple of pictures I found on the web:

What a lovely machine, especially if you can find a European horn to go with it - good luck to whomever is going to chaise this one.

I do like the cabinet. Looks like a recently painted horn, though, and I think I may spy an inappropriate Columbia reproducer on it. Even so worth considering if bought at the right price.
