Thanks for the nice link to the photo, I have a Victor Christmas ad for the Vic VI showing the brass horn, it is a nice color drawing but does not look near as nice as the real thing. According to Victor Data Book the VI came with a Japanned Paper Mache horn first shipped Nov 23 1904, the VI type M first shipped March 1 1905 last shipped July 12, 1915 had the brass horn that was superseded by the mahogany. Japanned horn discontinued in favor of #24 brass horn Aug 31, 1906 so it looks like the brass horn came out in 1906. The Victor Data book is excellent in quality, price and content. The last VI was shipped in the 4th quarter of 1927 for a total of one that year. Steve
