Wurlitzer Style 33
Mandolin PianOrchestra
Philipps Pianella Model Silvana-Xylophon
(Krughoff collection, 1999)
This frontal view, with a myriad of tiny
electric lights brightly glowing, shows off the PianOrchestra's
magnificently restored casework, making it a delicious delight
to the eye. Imagine the spectacular nature of the PianOrchestra
when it was introduced, and was the leading edge of modern
technology, before most people even dreamed of owning an
automobile, or even had electric lighting in their home or place
of business. These were marvelous machines during their heyday,
and provided the absolute best in quality that recorded music
could then offer. |
