This was our first machine purchased in 1991.

The original Victrola XIV was introduced in 1910 with a different, more squarish look and gold hardware. In 1912 the cabinet style changed and gold hardware was replaced with nickel-plated hardware. In 1914 the cabinet was redesigned again. The third cabinet iteration is represented here.

Approximately 270,000 Victor XIVs were produced over the years. These were originally offered at $150 finally increasing to $200 at the end of production.
