The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I recently acquired a 1913 Victrola vv-210 from our neighbor. It was her grandmothers and she was afraid no one in her family would appreciate it and take care of it. After doing a lot of reading here and watching Dyslexic Genius and other videos, we are now very happy with our new to us record player. Only things I have done to it is a deep cleaning on the cabinet, cleaned, oiled and greased the mechanism and had to replace one of the governor spring. We only have three records that came with it, so now we're on the lookout for more

Here it is playing for the first time

Very nice, congratulations!

Looks and sounds great-- Congrats on your first "fix" I think you did a very nice job on it, staying true to originality.
Welcome!

Thanks everyone.

Nice work. Now you will have the fun of finding and playing records you have never heard before.

You haven't mentioned what state you are from. I am in New Hampshire and a long time collector with too many records.
If you close we should connect.
