FOR SALE: Various parts and hardware from a VV-XVII (Victrola 17)

[Zenger]

Greetings, everyone. For many years I had a VV-XVII (Victrola 17) that I had hoped to restore, but recently I accepted the painful reality that its cabinet was well beyond salvation, so I stripped it of all its salvageable parts and hardware and will be listing them on Ebay in a few weeks. Before I do, though, I will offer them for sale here, and will happily consider offers below what I will probably end up listing them for if it will save me the trouble of listing them. I offer them here individually, though of course if you want more than one thing the price will be even better. Everything I salvaged is in very nice shape, with good gold-plating, no rust or mold, etc. Here's what I have:

*Motor and motor board (including speed gauge and control). This is a 3-spring motor; I believe one of the springs is detached or broken

*Turntable (with nice felt)

*Tone arm, reproducer (Victrola No. 2), and back bracket, with mounting screws

*Crank

*Complete horn (wood & metal sections) with mounting bolts

*Key

*Needle cup with lid

*Back panel knob

*Back panel

*Lid (with hinge)

*Lid support

*2 upper door knobs (with screws)

*2 lower door knobs (with screws)

*Upper keyhole escutcheon (with screws)

*Lower keyhole escutcheon (with screws)

*Crank hole escutcheon (with screws)

*4 casters

If you are interested in any or all of these and wish to make an offer, or have any questions, PM me or email me at [email protected]. Many of you have helped me out in the past with parts, and I hope I can return the favor.

Did you get the pictures?

I'm still looking for a gold needle cup and if the crank matches an XX-XVI crank, the gold on mine is in shambles and have been thinking about replacing it...

[Zenger]

A few people have asked me for a picture of the knobs. Lower (larger ones) are in front; upper (smaller) ones are in back. The larger ones measure .95" (24.2mm) in diameter; the smaller ones measure .72" (18.5mm) in diameter.

To the gentleman who just PM'ed me -- the VV-XVII horn has been sold. Other parts still available before I post them on Ebay. If you're looking for something, PM me or email me at [email protected]. (Email preferred.)

[Zenger]

In response to a PM: I would be happy to include the lid support and hinge with the lid if someone wants the whole package, but also happy to sell each part separately.

UPDATE: The horn, lid, lid support, knobs and needle cup have been sold. I'm going to list the rest on Ebay soon if they don't sell here, so if you need any of the remaining parts and want a better price, email me at [email protected].
