RCA Victor Fluorescent Light 1940's?

Post by markiemark »

I understand this is post war, and yet it says "Only RCA Victor Makes the Victrola". I have since located a supplier for theses tubes! Lights up FANTASTIC! I bought if off E bay for $225 US. Have a friend, who buffed all the scratches out of it. He also reconnected the main spring to my G@T HMV Monarch Senior, as I had let the motor completely run down:( Markie in NZ ::)

They called their phonographs "Victrola" in the early 50s too.
