The Victor M, marketed under the name Monarch, was launched in 1901 as a premium, high-performance model, retailing for $35.00, which is approximately equivalent to $1,250.00 today. It was equipped with a substantial 10-inch turntable and a robust two-spring motor, significantly enhancing its performance compared to other early models in the Victor lineup of that year. The cabinet was constructed from quarter-sawn oak, exemplifying the craftsmanship of the time. This particular machine has undergone a comprehensive restoration, presenting itself in a condition that rivals, if not surpasses, its original state from over 120 years ago. Both the motor and the reproducer have been meticulously refurbished, while the case and horn have been restored to their initial aesthetic. This exceptional piece would serve as a remarkable addition to any collection or as a stunning centerpiece in a home or office setting.
