1938 Garrard RC-100 Turn-over Record Changer

In 1938, Garrard designed and manufactured an elaborate record changer to compete with the popular and expensive Capehart. The first production run consisted of approximately 100 units which were destined for an American company. Nearly all of these were on board a ship that was sunk by a U-boat at the beginning of the war. Only a handful survived, and all were plagued by the ill-conceived pot metal frame.
