The Rock-Ola Story
Setting the Standards for Quality Jukebox Manufacturing Since 1927.
Rock-Ola is the last, great Jukebox Factory in America.
The Rock-Ola company was founded by industry legend David C. Rockola. He would go on for 58 years to produce jukeboxes longer than anyone else in history. In his lifetime, David Rockola created and produced the most prolific variety of coin-operated machines in the industry. But it was his classic jukeboxes that inspired the term Rock & Roll and left an indelible mark on the music industry that literally echoes his name.

In 1927 he started the Rock-Ola Scale Company and later changed the name to Rock-Ola Manufacturing Company. In 1934 he surprised the world with he vaulted into the jukebox industry with his first Model "A".
David Rockola received a Presidential Citation for his contributions in manufacturing M1 Carbines during WWII.
