Remember that one? Or how about "Stompin' at the Savoy," or "Pennies from Heaven "... top tunes from back in 1936. The year we introduced one of our "big hits." too ... the Rock -Ola Multi -Selector. "Americas finest phonograph ... at America's lowest price." And here's what we said about it then ... .. just two tools. An ordinary pair of pliers and a tiny, dime store screw driver. That's about all you need to keep your Rock -Ola Multi- Selector in perfect running order 24 hours a day throughout the year. This is because the Rock -Ola Multi -Selector is so well built. So solidly constructed. Its entire assembly is a masterpiece of simplicity. All useless parts -all excess grief and baggage -have been done away with. Only the necessary elements remain. That's why you can always depend on your Rock -Ola Multi -Selector to perform smoothly and satisfactorily." Years pass. Fads change. So do people. products, and even entire companies. Yet. for us one thing has never changed. Outlined in that brief passage is our philosophy of manufacturing which has remained the same for nearly 30 years. Pure and simple concepts

of engineering . _ . a tradition of excellence which has made flir1110101 Rock -Ola the most respected name in phonographs . .. a tradition well- represented by our new 1964 Rhapsody I f and Capri Il De Luxe Stereo -Monaural phonographs. See them at your Rock -Ola Distributor's today!
