Wurlitzer Model 1100 "Bomber Nose" Jukebox, 1... Lot n° 299

Wurlitzer Model 1100 "Bomber Nose" Jukebox, made from 1947-1949, in good original condition. Wurlitzer Model 1100 tried to move away from 1940’s art deco design by using a number of stylistic elements from the aerospace and automotive design at the time. The “Bomber Nose” got its nickname from the enlarged plastic dome over the record player, similar to the nose of Boeing B-17 “Flying Fortress” bomber, which allowed for the working mechanism to be seen much clearer. Multi-coloured lights rotate within the pilasters, red-yellow interior dome lighting, rotating song selector, shiny chrome details. Coin-operated, plays a single side of 78-RPM records with 24 selections. The front glass has been replaced. Height: 147 cm. Width: 80 cm. Depth: 65 cm. Condition: Good. Location: The Netherlands, Tilburg.
