Ships Worldwide.
Stunning Victor V disc phonograph with a rare Hawthorne & Sheble “Artistic” flower horn. Phonograph and horn are both ca. 1910, and both are in exceptionally nice original condition.
The V was Victor’s top-of-the-line oak phonograph and its largest oak phonograph. It was also the ultimate workhorse, with a massive 3-spring motor capable of playing multiple sides with a single winding. Hawthorne & Sheble’s Artistic horns featured polished metal surfaces with decorative floral interiors.
Condition of this Victor V is excellent, and it’s completely original. No replica parts, no repairs, no refinishing, no glamming up for the camera. The back-bracket enamel is original, with no flaking, and the decorations are crisp.
Original crank, original brake, original horn elbow, original turntable felt, etc. There’s a tight hairline in the grain on the crank side of the cabinet which likely resulted as the cabinet’s panels aged and cured. It’s barely visible, even if you’re looking for it, and it has no bearing on the structural integrity of the cabinet, which is excellent.
