Seeking information on Victor VE12-15E record index dividers
Posted: Tue Apr 21, 2020 11:34 am
Hello All!
I have started a project recently to fabricate the hardboard record index dividers used in the Victor VE12-15E and VV4-20. To my knowledge the last known VE12-15 (late amplifier) that was sold through TMF was an example that the seller purchased right from the house it was delivered to in Louisville, KY. Probably why they had survived all these years. The seller had several photos in the listing and from those photos it seem there were 8 dividers of each size. Being 12" and 10" to fit the 2 different sized record pockets in the VE12-15. I once owned and VV4-20 which had 1 pocket and had these same exact dividers in it of one size. In the VE12-15E photos I can only see a few of the letters used and I want to be historically correct with what letters were used in each size. I am not assuming anything on what letters were used. If you have this particular VE12-15 in the attached photo or another that may still have it's original dividers, could you please supply me all the correct information you may have. Below are photos: first showing these dividers in a VE12-15E and then a photo of what I am able to reproduce using black "museum board".
Thanks in advance for any correct information you may be able to supply.
Best regards,
