Jesse Fuller playing his Silvertone
which he bought at Sears in Detroit in 1962 after his "Maurer" 12-string guitar had been stolen
source: Front cover of Fantasy 24707; photographer: Stephen Shames

"This guitar was built in about 1962; Harmony did not produce electric 12-strings in the 1950s.I was with Jesse Fuller the day (in 1962) his original Maurer guitar was stolen, in Detroit, where he was for a playing engagement. In order to make the show that night, he simply drove out to Sears and bought this guitar. Feel free to get in touch if you want more info." (Paul Hostetter 2013 at https://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/search/object/nmah_607587

"This Silvertone guitar is a non-stock creation. It is possible that it was cobbled together by adding a 12-string headstock to a Harmony-built Silvertone 1427 body (with the metal Silvertone logo transferred from the stock six-string headstock), but Sears never made *any* electric 12-strings available as a stock item (and acoustic 12-strings did not appear at Sears until 1967). The last catalog appearance of this model was Spring/Summer 1961. As for the build date of this instrument, there should be a date stamp as well as a serial/model number visible inside the body." (Randy Holmes, 2014 at https://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/search/object/nmah_607587)

Jesse Fuller appeared as a film extra in
"Thief of Baghdad" (Raoul Walsh 1924, silent film),
"East of Suez" (Raoul Walsh 1925, silent film),
"Hearts in Dixie" (Paul Sloane 1929),
"End of the World" (Abel Gance 1934),
"The Great White Hope" (Martin Ritt 1970; song "Let Me Hold You In My Arms Tonight")
