Antique Victor Victrolita Phonograph for Restoration or Parts 1925

Description

Antique Victor Victrolita Phonograph for Restoration or Parts (or for Decor).  This one is from 1925 .. Serial Number 37905.  The phonograph is not working .. the motor needs attention (this VV 1-1 has been on my todo list for a couple of decades).  Haven't gotten to it.  I hope someone else will as the phonograph is a nice example.  At least one problem is in the winding mechanism .. the spring unwinds at the handle.  There is a broken wire shown in the next to last photo that I think may be the culprit.  [Hint - Don't wind the spring until the unwinding mechanism is fixed; since there is no stop on the backward wind the crank
doesn't wind off
.]  A nice looking phonograph.  The reproducer is not original but looks good on the phonograph.  It has new gaskets and sound good.  The Victrolita replaced the Victrola IV and was the last of the
non-orthoptionc line of Victor phonographs.
Email questions are always welcome.  Thank you for looking at my listing.
