Victrola "Credenza" Phonograph
By Martin Anderson

Does anyone have any information on the Victrola "Credenza"?
I was told this was Victrola's last attempt to stay alive when the
electronic phonographs started to come out.  It appears to have
a double horn and is quite loud for being mechanically reproduced.

Also, I am working on a Mills Novelty Ferris Wheel.  It is supposed
to be one of the first juke boxes produced.  This one will give you
five plays for a quarter.  Any thoughts on this item will be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,  Martin Anderson
