Scope and content
The Conn Home Organ Cassette Program, "the sight and sound way of learning to play," was being advertised at Prosser Piano & Organ Co., 3010 Sixth Ave., on April 28, 1971. Larry Whitman, left, was demonstrating the Conn Home Organ system and sat at the organ prepared to play "When the Saints Go Marching In," while Duane Prosser, founder of Prosser Piano, inserted the cassette tape. Self-instruction cassettes accompanied the Conn organ. Students could record themselves and then play back to enjoy their performances. Simple song sheets such as "Santa Lucia," "Because," and "On a Sunday Afternoon" were available. Photograph ordered by Prosser Piano & Organ Co. (identification supplied by a family member)
