This was a nice tour and very informative. There is no charge to visit. I loved all the Nipper memorabilia!

Mr. Johnson who owned the Victrola factory in Camden NJ was a native of Dover DE. We were treated to a dosan that knew everything about the Victorola. Kept me and my grandchildren engaged for over an hour. We all loved it! Amust see on a rainy day

My whole family really enjoyed this museum. I am a member of the Oliver Evans Chapter (Philadelphia region) Society for Industrial Archeology. We document the industrial heritage of the Delaware Valley. The Victrola (later RCA) factory in Camden was an important part of the industrial story of the region and it was great to see so much of the factory's... More

We were surprised and delighted to find this wonderful and complete Victrola museum in the heart of Dover, Delaware. The museum displays a massive collection of Eldridge Johnson's Victor Talking Machines, and an overwhelming, but well organized, collection of 78 RPM records that contain both music, and historical voices and events. During our tour we learned about the huge manufacturing... More
