Working 1927 Antique Victrola Consolette -
Price:
$425
Location:
Galveston, TX
Description:
Working Victrola, great for when the power is out-- the original iPod! The Consolette was among the first four Orthophonic Victrola designs introduced in late 1925. It was a low-cost, small console-style device that was rather popular with middle-class Americans. This model stayed in manufacturing into very early 1929, indicating that it stayed a strong seller. The Consolette was offered just with a mahogany finish, and included an Orthophonic Reproducer, exponential horn, and nickel plated hardware (an antique bronze finish was utilized at the end of the manufacturing run). Early manufacturing versions (left) had no grille fabric covering the horn opening and used a simple single spring motor, with a small 10" turntable. In December 1925, the turntable was enlarged to 12" and a double spring motor and grille fabric was included. In mid-1926, the automobile brake function was included. In mid-1927, the cabinet design was updated (right), with a more squared-off look. The original 1925 asking price of the 4-3 was $85.00. The price was later raised to $95.00. An estimated total of 234,323 hand-wound Victrola 4-3's were produced, making it the most popular of the full size (non-portable) Orthophonic phonographs.
