Here is our 1910 Wetern Electric Nicklelodeon ( now a Quarterlodeon). It still plays afte a 101 years. The lower doors were replaced with glass at some point so you can see the mechanics of it. Works much like a player piano, but with a large roll with 10 different tunes. It use to reside in the Hole in the Wall Saloon in Rockerville Ghost Town in South Dakota, back in the 50's and 60's. The second picture is of a postcard from then.It now resides in our Antique store in Keystone SD. It's not for sale.
