Gefloigel Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Hey all New here so I dunno whether this has been covered but... Is there a name for this modified Victor 1 with pressed wood sides? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurtA Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 It looks like a "Pre-Dog treat" machine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 The top molding looks odd. Is that what's been modified? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gefloigel Posted September 20, 2023 Author Share Posted September 20, 2023 (edited) The machine is featured in "A world of antique phonographs" by Fabrizio and Paul. Page 93. But it calls it a dressed up vic 1 from Germany. I was just hoping for a name better than "that little German Victor 1 with the acanthus designs pressed into the sides and the ivorette tag with the recording angel from page 93...etc" to research it more.

CurtA Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 "Victor" machines were produced in various countries - England, France, Germany, etc. with variations in designs. Is this machine yours, or are you just wondering about it? The description in the book pretty well describes it. It's a D.G.A.G. (Deutsche Grammophon} Victor I variation. Personally, I like it better than the US version, which its rather plain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
