these machines are very rare here in south carolina,so finding this was like finding a needle in a haystack. my coworker gave this to me on monday, it belonged to his grandparents and has spent all of its life in pimlico south carolina.I am very thankful that he thought of me when he decided to get rid of it. thanks Dale.

Other than the model number, how do you tell the '57 from the '56? |

Hi Steve, The 56 has an all white control panel, and is lighted all the way across with six 7 watt bulbs. The console is slightly raised, and the chrome bezel goes all the way around the console. The 57 has a white and bronze coloured control panel, the chrome bezel is on the top and sides only, and the console sits down directly on the top. It is also lighted on the right side only. |
