Hiya folks,
As seen elsewhere, with a request for identification.
Anyone definitely know what this originally belonged to? We're thinking a 10-35 changer, possibly, because of the offset throat.
Thanks,
Fran

Don't the metal reentrant horns usually come from Columbia machines?

No, some Victors had metal horns, 8-7, 8-8, 8-9, 10-35, maybe more. I'm not aware that any Columbias had metal re-entrant horns.

10-35's are not "changers". I believe the 8-7, 8-8 & 8-9 used the same horn as well.

I'm not sure I understand. Edie's Victor Victrola website states they were changers.JerryVan wrote:fran604g wrote:Hiya folks,

I just saw a British Model 126 Viva-tonal and the horn just looked similar to me.JerryVan wrote:Benjamin_L wrote:Don't the metal reentrant horns usually come from Columbia machines?
