[Jukebox-list] 1937 Mills Zephyer

[dirksenj at bellsouth.net]

Peter - I had one once and then sold it. They are really noisy clunkers - 
more of a curiosity than a good working jukebox. The tonearm is really heavy 
and tends to slam down on the records. Be careful and ask for pictures of 
the tt motor - the housing has a tendancy to crack or crumble and 
replacement is the only alternative. But they are fun to watch and easy to 
get going. Don't let me (or anyone else) tell you what to do - buy it if you 
want - the price isn't bad. Just keep good records off it and don't expect a 
good jukebox you will play everyday.
