Hi friends. Hope all are well and have spent some time enjoying the
marvelous invention of sound reproduction in some way today. Hey, I have a
question that I am sure someone in this group knows the answer. How many records
did Will Rogers produce on Victor, and what were the titles? I just picked
up an absolutely gorgeous pristine copy of Timely Topics / A New Slant on
War yesterday and want to find any of the remaining records to complete the
series. I think they were all on the purple Victor label.
I was amazed at watching a Leave it to Beaver episode last week. The show
had a gorgeous Victor VI in the background of a lake house that the Cleaver
family was visiting. It was odd seeing this type of thing as a prop at a
lake house! I wonder what happened to that machine. After seeing the
episode, it sparked my desire once again to own one of these. A Victor VI, not a
lake house. lol...
I am now in the market for a Victor VI machine. Anyone having one is asked
to please let me know off line. I have leads on three located in New York
and would like to consider one from someone in this group. I would really
like have one close by so that I could pick it up and not have to risk
extreme damage by the carriers.
Thanks much for any help and happy weekend. Keep the speed limit hovering
around 78...rpms that is!
