Neat!
If it says "RCA Victor" and has the Nipper logo, it is pre-1968. RCA changed to that ugly new logo in 1968 and dropped the "Victor" from its electronics products, as well as the "His Master's Voice" logo.
I remember as a kid, back in 1968, when I had the chance to look at console stereos, I would do so...and at the age of 8, I could tell older stock from brand new models - the older stock still said "RCA Victor" inside. The new models had that ugly RCA logo, no "Victor." By then I was rather fascinated with the "His Master's Voice" logo. Funny thing, as I grew up, I lost interest in His Master's Voice, Nipper and RCA Victor...maybe because, in my view, RCA dropped everything about their products that was "cool" to me (remember, I was only eight years old when the change was made by RCA).
