Описание к видео RCA Victor RP-168 Record Changer 1949 1st edition 45 RPM Player

This is a 1949 RCA RP-168 45 RPM record changer. This is the one that started it all. First sold in April 1949, this is the earliest example I have turned up in 40+ years of collecting and servicing these players. This particular changer was in a 1952 Emerson bakelite phono. It was common back then for manufacturers to "flush the toilet" and dump old stock to other companies. By 1950, RCA was well into making the RP-190 changers and was left with a number of these old 168's. What better way to get rid of them than to sell them? Still perfectly usable, the 168's ended up in many brands- like Motorola, Emerson, Tele-Tone, etc.
