[Phono-L] Dating needed, please on Victor 10-50 and 8-30

[Douglas Houston]

Merle; the best place to get the data you want would be Paul Edie's Victor
Victrola page. The other "gospel" is Bob Baumbach's "Victor Data Book".

> I'm finally getting around to updating my website (cheap plug --
www.littlewonderrecords.com) to include all the additional information I've
collected over the past year or two, and could use some help.  I simply
don't have the reference books to get the facts, and thought one of you
would be able to answer very quickly -- please don't go to a lot of trouble!
> And please excuse my almost complete ignorance on this topic...  I've got
two phonograph catalogs from Victor that are not dated.  I figured I could
date them by dating the phonographs advertised in them.  I'm also assuming
that the highest number models are the latest machines.  In one catalog the
highest number is an 8-30 and in the other the highest is a 10-50.
> Would someone mind telling me, please, whether I'm right in my
assumptions about the high numbers, and if I am, what the years were when
these were first manufactured?  I'd be indebted.
> Thanks!
