It's too bad there's no full view of the side on the machine, to see if a crank hole has been filled. The crank now looks suspiciously too far to the back of the machine. However, being a later machine (as can be seen by the back bracket), it could be the company was dropping Victrola mechanisms in V-IV cases to use them up. If that's the case, it could be a very rare machine.
