The monster of monsters; the only thing thing guy's missing is the massed peasants with pitchforks and torches.

The saddest thing- an Orthophonic died for this.

I was actually looking at this trying to figure out where the odd parts came from. Might be worth it for the parts (back bracket might have value)...but I just don't have the time or inclination at this point to gamble on it.

I'm forming a phonograph SWAT squad to deal with this sort of seller.... Or maybe an Inquisition?

NO! Not the comfy phonograph!

The steel plate mounting for the motor, as well as the brake & speed control, look Brunswick-y, even if the turntable and the crank do not. The spring barrels look to be held together with some pointed-end sheet metal screws. The Victor ID plate looks familiar, maybe from those crapophones posted here numerous times before. Maybe there are copies being made in brass overseas of the same plate, same model & serial number, same dents/holes and all. Why do they bother?
