Scope and content
In June of 1955, plywood was being promoted heavily as the building material of choice. The Condon Co. ordered this photograph of the "Harbor Wave" plywood record player and television cabinet at the residence of Harry and Edith Watson, 12005 Woodbine Lane SW. The cabinet featured a bench seat where an unidentified model lounged as she selected records. The phonograph turntable was on the top of the cabinet with the television possibly inside the larger covered area to the right. "Harbor wave" possibly referred to the wavy pattern in the plywood grain. Mr. Watson was an account executive with the Condon Co.
