I will put the machine on ebay as soon as I can do a proper write-up on it. That shouldn't take long, because I don't know much about the machine, other than what I have learned here, on the list. I will let the pictures speak for themselves. The auction will start for a penny, with no reserve, so we shall see where it goes. Thanks for the information.

Hi Randy, This looks like the 1-2 type A. 22,673 were shipped, the final one, type C, had the pot metal Exhibition on it. I am looking in the Victor Data Book I did not know Victor made this toy phono until you asked and I looked it up, if you eBay it let me know so I can see what it sells for.
