Here is "Lonely Melody" (Paul Whiteman & His Orchestra, with Bix Beiderbecke, cornet; Victor 21214; recorded 1/4/28), as played back on my Victor VE8-30X with tooled leather panels (phonograph dating to 1927). It has a brass Orthophonic soundbox.

Love the old music - classic, brilliant and timeless. Paul, Bix and so many others who we are lucky enough to still have their music with us. Wish I had saved my Grandmothers credenza type radio from 1923 and all her antiques....
Hi. I just wanted to mention, that the speed is a little slow. I compared it with the Garrard 301, and the compact disc. The Victrola is superb. A very exspensive model.
Hi -- Thanks for posting this! I remember playing this 78 a lot when I was a kid, haven't heard it in probably 30 years until tonight when I asked PandoraRadio to do Paul Whiteman for me, and it came up in the playlist. Delighted, because strangely enough just last week this melody -- and this particular recording of it, riffs intact -- got stuck in my head outta nowhere and I spent some time searching for it -- misremembering its name, tho. What's the flip side of this Victor? It's good, too.
Looks like a Brass reproducer on that beautiful machine.Sounds Great.Did you ever try to rebuild the reproducer?It's a lot of fun trying to line up the little ball bearings.
That's a gorgeous leather tooled Credenza!!! I can tell we have a lot in common about our opinions of what a great phonograph is. I have a fairly early Credenza with the centered turntable and the brass reproducer. Marc.
