Back in the day (the 50's mostly) the headstocks were basically the same shape as the Gibson guitars.
It took me a while to see it, but on minute 2:16-2:20 the typical "lip top" headstock is clearly visible. Also visible the "simple plain G" headstock veneer and the individual Waverly tuners as described in Hans book on page 59 for the Capri CE-100.
So it seems to be a 1956 or early 1957 model (my best guess) since Hans wrote that in 1957 the "Chesterfield" inlay was introduced on that model.
Interesting detail how he has taped the f-holes to close them. (Around minute 1:30-1:45)
At minute 3:45 you see the black stove knobs that were used between 1956 and 1959. (Hans book page 35).
Cool to identify those guitars from such old videos.
