Description: mid 1920's VICTROLA VV-7-25 brass name plate ID badge RARE Like the other models in the Victrola "7 Series", the VV 7-25 was a "home entertainment center" priced in the upper-middle range, pairing a Victor Orthophonic (acoustic) phonograph with a RCA Radiola 17. The phonograph featured a two-spring motor and a "folded" (re-entrant) horn. The Radiola 17 was an advanced 'TRF' (Tuned Radio Frequency) set that required only a single knob for tuning, rather than the typical array of knobs that was previously required to select a radio station. In addition, it did not require the use of dry-cell batteries, which would require replacement after long periods of radio use. A large mechanical-valve "switch" would change the routing from the radio's electromagnetic driver or from the phonograph's tonearm directly to the horn's "neck". Since the newly-developed paper-cone speaker, which provided better sound (and eliminated the large mechanical switching valve) had become popular by the end of 1927, the 7-25 was essentially obsolete when it was introduced. see the photos for best description of condition - bright beautiful gold color - measures 3' x 2 1/8" - has 4 mounting holes -- serial # 2340thanks for viewing my item!
