A beautiful Jukebox from 1948

Wurlitzer 1100 of 1948

We will soon get the fabulous Wurlitzer 1100 back from restoration.
It should be in the show room by the end of May/early June.
This is one of my favourite jukeboxes and  the last by the famous designer from the 'Golden age' of jukeboxes, Paul Fuller .
His most famous design is the Wurlitzer 1015 but I prefer this model for looks and it has a great sound.
It is nearly the same size as the 1015 but because of the lancet top it looks a lot smaller.
It has a more sophisticated tone arm and I think a better sound. It, of course, can only be stacked with 24 78 rpm   records playing only one side but with  record in good condition what a sweet sound!
Here is to the link to the the page on the website.
I will post more pictures of the actual jukebox ( the one above we have sold), with detail shots when it arrives at the showroom
