About Us ~ 81 Years and Still Growing
Rock-Ola Manufacturing Corporation was founded in Chicago in 1927 by the Coin-Op pioneering legend David C. Rockola. In 1935, Mr. Rockola applied his vision and employed his coin-op factory to the production of jukeboxes. It is said that he inspired the term “Rock & Roll” ~ it is certain that David C. Rock-Ola has left an indelible mark on an industry that literally echoes his name, a name that in many parts of the world is synonymous with "Jukebox."
Since 1977, The Antique Apparatus Company stands proudly for uncompromising quality in the engineering and manufacture of jukeboxes. Founder and CEO Glenn Streeter was the first to design and manufacture the finest modern “Nostalgic” Jukeboxes.
In 1992 Antique Apparatus and Rock-Ola combined their strengths and merged to create the best Commercial & Nostalgic Jukeboxes on the market and they continue to do so today.
