The Victor Talking Machine Company was created in 1900 as The Consolidated Talking Machine Company by Eldridge Johnson with Leon F. Douglas. Its name was changed to The Victor Talking Machine Company on October 3, 1901 following a court case victory over patents with The Columbia Graphophone Company. For the next three decades the company was a leading American producer of phonographs and phonograph records and one of the leading phonograph companies in the world. It was headquartered in Camden, New Jersey.
In 1929 it was acquired by the Radio Corporation Of America (RCA). The company was renamed Victor Talking Machine Division - Radio-Victor Corporation Of America. In 1930, it was changed to RCA Victor Company, Inc. (1930-1935) and later to RCA Manufacturing Co., Inc. (1935-1943).
Formally dissolved on October 26, 1934.
