Wow, this is so cool...........I have a Victrola from 1900, had the needle cartridge rebuilt and rechromed and went to pick it up at this guys house on the Chesapeake Bay last night.

He had 7 old Jukeboxes dating from the 1930's thru late 50's that he has restored himself, and they are Beautiful.  He has added on to his home 6 times since 1967 and has multi-million $$ worth of Mechanical Music?????  Everything from outdoors Pipe Organs, Piano & Violin Music Makers from early 1900, Jukeboxes, those Scope Jukeboxes with the 8mm film (those were the coolest!), hand cranked organ boxes, clylendrer boxes, clocks with music boxes from the 1800's.........and I could go on and on.  He had a huge building built that was LOADED with the most beautiful things  All of this stuff was restored to MINT condition.  Everything played perfectly and the cabinets were something to see.

I have never seen anything like this in my life.  I was there from 7:30 till after 11 and could have spent another day there.  My ears were ringing all the way home!  What a night!
