There was an extensive article on the RCA suitcase portables in The Sound Box a few years ago. You might see if back issues are still available.

I could be wrong, but there doesn't seem to be any information on RCA Victor Suitcase Style crank Victrolas made after 1930. I can't find any on line information as to the various models and when they were made. The one shown in the video simply says Model 02. I have never been able to pinpoint the year it was first offered to the General Public.

I'm not sure, Steve. Since it is RCA, it is post '29 but from the look of it, I'm guessing 1940s. I don't know if anyone has done research on these
things.

Ron,

What years were that RCA portable made?

Steve



The tone arm and reproducer are from an RCA portable machine.
