Orchestrope 32 for the home

Orchestrope 32 for the home
Taken from the small catalog of July 1, 1930 of "The Capehart Corporation,"  Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA. See page 6 and 7.
The Orchestrope is the first product of then called "Capehart Automatic Phonograph Co.", which company lasted only one year and had then to be financed as Capehart Corporation (moved to Fort Wayne, IN).

There are several early models of Orchestrope known like: Club, Commercial (wide), Commercial (high), Commercial 28 as 28-F, (perhaps 28-G) and 28-GB, Auditorium with a separate Orchestrope Speaker, Aristocrat without coin slot, Home and the "Park" with a separate speaker cabinet, Speaker 600.
In March 1930 came a less expensive Amperion line with a simple turning changer, followed by models with the drop-type only "10-12" mechanism in 1931. The main success was later the changer 16-E etc. - see more details and summaries here.
