RCA stereo radio 1930s?

Hello there-

Looking for your feedback on an RCA stereo phonograph from the 1930s.
Been in one spot for the past 80+years.
Need to sell and not sure of the value or details.

Had a problem uploading pics therefore, I created a blog with the pics.

Please see the pics at-->

All feedback is appreciated.

Thx
Suzan

First of all... STEREO devices wern't available until 1958.
So, with that said, this lovely old Victor phonograph console from the 30's is not a "stereo".
It's got the highly complex-to-overhaul (and rare to find) record changer in it, giving it some value.
Of course the overall condition needs to be determined by someone knowledgeable, and standing right in front of it.
Pictures on the 'net simply cannot replace that.
Best to have it appraised by a local professional.
Oh, and don't get curious and try to plug it in to see "if it works" - you'll likely cause it damage because it needs a mandatory professional restoration before any use - and that will kill value.
Good luck.
The Internet is a marvelous thing, however it's not a good substitute for actually being there.
