Anyone into jukeboxes? Need information on my new toy.

[flippa]

Did a little research & found out it is a 1958 Wurlitzer 2250, one of approximately 1800 made. 

I also discovered that the older jukeboxes were often distroyed by the companies when they were traded in.  I guess this makes sence; they could continue selling new machines if the old ones are trashed every few years. 

After reading this, I wasn't too hopeful in finding the missing parts, especially since there were not many of this style made over 52 years ago.  I never thought I would find the missing pieces for the dome frame or the rear cover.

It only took two days to find all the missing parts, keys, amp rebuilding kit & service manuals for it.  Gotta love the internet!!!

Watch out.  I got started collecting old Seeburgs 6 years ago and I now have 6 of them.  Its addicting.  Here is the one in my basement  Malt Shop

Hey Brian - the basement/gameroom area looks nice! I don't think I've seen pics of it with all your machines/signs and such in it.
Looks like a great place to hang out and soon bowl a few games!
On another note - I think that Herseys Chocolate Syrup on the counter needs to be refrigerated after opening - how cold is it in your basement?

        That fountain service sign above the jukebox looks really cool.
I've never seen one before, is it reproduction?

That is the basement of my dreams. That looks fantastic!

Thanks for the kind words,

No Curtis made the Soda FOUNTAIN SIGN FOR ME.  Here are some more pics.  I have added lots of cool stuff over the last few years.  I still go down there every night to listen to the Seeburg 100C and play the 1939 Cheveron pinball

Collecture,

You are right about the chocolate syrup.  Opps.

ps  I cant wait to get the (soon to be) restored 1958 Mudget ball Bowler down there.
