The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I just picked up this nice 1910 VV-XVI L-door Victrola. The only thing missing is the needle cup and the reproducer seems to have been serviced recently. What's it's value in today's market?

Thanks,

Note: Apologies for the pics being side ways. On my cell phone they are upright but come out sideways in the post.

$300-500 I'd say. It's a later model L door so it's (at least in my opinion) less desirable than the earlier models with the fretwork. Plus no albums.

Worth is a funny thing. It varies depending whether you are looking for an investment, to flip it, part it out or to keep it. In parts alone, you probably have $700.00. Resale as a complete machine varies by region and depends on how much another person values it. I hope that you bought it to enjoy, and in that case, it’s priceless.

Thanks for the replies.

I've seen a few for sale for less than $200.
