Hello,
I just thought that I would post a few pictures of the machine I picked up today. It is a Victor Radio Electrola Model RE-45 made in 1929. It has been fully restored and plays very well. I will need to find some nice brown felt to replace the green on the turn table. Also one of the needle cups was missing so I put in an incorrect nickel plated one for now.

Very pretty! It shouldn't be too hard to find the correct needle cup. It looks like it should be shallow and bronze-finished.

Simply stunning. Congratulations. I was wondering, how heavy is the tone arm head compared to an orthophonic reproducer?
