Two Cool Truetone Consoles

Post: # 16351Post Hi-Fi-Mogul »

Man, I really like the designs on these early 1950's
Truetones.

Both have V-M 950 series type changers in them.

The Highboy is one well organized attractive product;
controls and changer w/in easy reach.

I like the other Truetone's side positioned changer.

Both are far away, but they would look nice when cleaned up and
restored.

Both built by Wells-Gardner? I'll bet there were identical Firestone and Wards models the only difference being the labeling. Probably good performers and well-built. Truetone consoles in any configuration are not often seen. Thanks for sharing..... ;) :D

The first one looks like it was built into a TV cabinet.

I bet Coronado had a similar model too.
