Thanks for sharing. That was great. I really enjoyed the pictures. I noticed a Victor 1 with a very large horn with a floor crane out doors. Did anyone notice this, or are my eyes playing tricks on me?

I think you are correct about the Vic with the big horn. See below.

I think it's an M, not a 1, is it not?

Hmmm.... Well, it's hard to say. The cabinet appears to be shorter than a Vic 1, so it might be an M, but the picture is not very clear.

Here's an G&T/HMV Senior Monarch with a long horn on it's original pedestal that was for sale down the Gold Coast back in 1982. It was a beautiful machine, but it made your ears bleed :)
I dont think it was quite as long as the horn on the Victor above.

BTW: by original pedestal, I dont mean it was a G&T product, but it was obvious the pedestal had been together since the machine was new.

No you saw it, a very small Victor with a very large Horn with floor crane, outside. There was also a cylinder machine outside with very large horn earlier in the video.
