1 Best Sight in Dover, Delaware

Johnson Victrola Museum

The museum provides a fun and informative tribute to Delaware native Eldridge Reeves Johnson, who brought record-playing into American homes via the famous Victor Talking Machine Company he founded in 1901. Old Victrolas, phonographs, and decorative horns are displayed, and one section depicts a replica of a store that sold phonographs and records. In the music gallery, you can hear excerpts played from original discs on Victor machines.
