Ron, I feel fortunate that you are part of this group. Your wealth of
knowledge is most helpful. Thanks for the info on the homemade sign.
Your comment on the blue "discotheque" sign has me asking other questions.
During the Discotheque times were there other companies making stuff for
jukes and dance joints? If Seeburg didn't make the sign was it like an
authorized part, since it was available through Seeburg distributors?
I wonder if I found a sign if it would fit in my SS160? Do you know of other
kits made for the SS160? I have one accessory metal sign that is similar to
the original but it has only a dancing couple on it - no jazz band.
I love learning about these kits and things. I also think the green 480
would be a neat find.
I picked up a SC1 consolette and it had some universal mini album inserts.
Just a graphic in the center with band instruments on the corners. Something
different. I will post some pics soon of that on the google site.
