[Jukebox-list] Another movie jukebox-sighting

I don't know if anybody else "collects" these sightings,
there are folks who build lists of pinballs sighted in
movies and TV shows, and build websites chronicling them,
but anyway...

Last night's "Cinema Insomnia" (yes, I was awake at 3:30
this morning...) was the haunting black & white "Carnival
of Souls" from 1962 (not the 1998 Wes Craven remake).  
During a scene where the creepy neighbor takes the doomed
protagonist Mary on a date, there is a shot to establish
the tone of the joint that starts with a full-screen view
of the grille of a Seeburg Q.  I recognized those 'floating'
chrome knobs immediately, the view then panned up to show
the selection buttons and glass dome panels.  The view then
pulled back to show the two characters at a table.  You
see the juke a couple more times in the background.

Now that I've seen a DS in "In the Heat of the Night", and
this Q, I'm waiting for a movie to show an AY like mine...
