VICTOR VICTROLA QUEEN ANNE STYLE VV-XIV 1915

Victor Talking Machines VICTROLA, model VV-XIV from 1915.

"The XIV was introduced in 1910 to fill the gap between the new tabletop X and XI models and the $200 flagship XVI. The earliest XIV models had a squarish, rather plain look, with minimal decorative trim and unusual curved Queen Anne legs. These models used gold plated hardware. The design was modernized in late 1912, initially appearing more like an oversized version of its cheaper cousin, the VV-XI. At the same time, the gold plating on the hardware was replaced with a nickel plate. The cabinet was again changed in 1914, and increased in size, appearing more and more similar to its "big brother" VV-XVI model. The final cabinet change occurred in 1917 until production was ended in 1921. The XIV was available in a variety of wood finishes, but mahogany was by far the most popular choice. The early Queen Anne model is sought-after by collectors today. The original 1910 selling price of the XIV (in standard mahogany, oak or walnut) was $150.00. At the end of its production run, it sold for $200.00. An estimated total of 270,000 Victrola XIV's were produced." (The Victor-Victrola Page)
