Someday, when I have a 'gameroom' instead of just a room full of games, I would like to add some wallboxes. I remember them from a place my folks used to take my sister and I when we were little. It was called 'Columbus Bar', but had a family dining room attached on the side that anyone could eat in.

The actual jukebox itself was in the bar, and I don't recall ever seeing it ;) But I remember the wallboxes.

That is pretty neat, look forward to seeing it restored!

Same as when I was a kid growing up in Melbourne John when we used to go into town all the cafes in Swanston st had the chrome wall boxes and some still do and I never saw the jukebox it must have been hiding out back. Now and again they pop up on ebay but go for good money but yeah what a nice piece of history to have on the wall.

Nino that Juke collection in St kilda was awesome I reckon I spent 2-3hrs there just amazed by the old jukes right back to the 30's by memory but the 50's dome ones got me wanting one which I did many years ago but couldn't get it going so like all my other nice machines it was sold ^&( Still to this day I'm blown away by what he had in his house on all floors including the basement.
