The 1-90
was the lowest price cabinet-style (non-portable) Orthophonic phonograph that
Victor made when introduced in the spring of 1927. This machine used the
Orthophonic
Soundbox, a 2 spring motor, and and a very small folded exponential horn. This
small machine could produce remarkably good results from an Orthophonic
recording. Approximately 22,300 were produced before the model was
discontinued in early 1929.
Existing examples have a blended mahogany finish, although much of the cabinet
trim is a stained ash.
The original 1927 selling price of the 1-90 was $75.00.
The current collector database shows the earliest existent VV 1-90 to be S/N 822 and the latest to be S/N 20370.
