The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Does anyone know if anyone ever made reproduction Victor JR soundboxes? I'm in search of one specifically for my new JR but can't find any originals and was unsure if anyone made repros. I know someone made concert repros but I don't know who or if they're still being made.

Many years ago, Mirek Stehlik from Canada made The Victor Jr. reproducers along with Concerts, Berliners and Zonophones. He also made lots of coin-op and other parts. He retired long ago. I don't know of anyone currently making the Jr reproducers, but occasionally one of Mirek's reproducers shows up. I was able to purchase a Jr. from a Forum member about 10 years ago or so to put on my machine.

I don’t know but I would ask Paul Baker…..he has reproduced some rare things over the years..

Good Luck
