Apparently, according to the Ad, they sold quite a lot of these Wurlitzer Consolettes. However I only found one which I completely restored. Anyone else ever see one out there?
Here a video I recently uploaded to my channel: https://youtu.be/2f8SJyXAvJ8

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

They also didn't quite get the math right. The large print says "15 brand new Wurlitzer Consolette phonographs only $59 each." The smaller print says "Come early, as we have only 6 of these instruments." Want to bet the first customer in the door was told "Sorry, they're all sold"?dennis wrote:PORTABALES?

The cabinet bears more than a passing resemblance to the Victrola Consolette and it's British sister the HMV156.
