Here's a Zen- On on ebay.
Here's a Victoria. The two, while not exactly the same, seem to be akin to each other.
Seems very possible that the Victoria brand is a product of Zen-On.

It had heavier gauge Black Diamond strings. The lighter strings with the unwound third weren't sold then. I tried to lower the action by putting shims into the neck pocket. Despite the poor quality I'd still like to play it again. Thanks for the blast from the past - I'm really enjoying this site!

You guitar is pictured in Bizarre Guitars of the 60's, but the manufacturer is not identified. Apparently, Hiroyuki Noguchi didn't know who made it either. He did date it to the mid 1960's. sb
Here's the picture:

If you can post a picture of your guitar we may be able to tell you who manufactured it (see instructions under Forum Help and Guidelines).
My first thought concerning the Victoria brand is that you may have a guitar distributed by RCA Victor. In 1969 RCA began using franchised music outlets to distribute their records and apparently import guitars were sold as well. According to Willie Moseley, RCA house brand labels included Baron, Royalist and Victor. I don't know that RCA sold guitars under the Victoria brand name but it seems like a possibility.
Anyway, the brand doesn't tell us much concerning the origin of the guitar. If you want to know who actually made the instrument try posting a picture. sb
