Special thanks
Since I'm not so technical myself, some people had
to help me , special thanks to (in alphabetic order):

your serial numbers to help his research !

Manufacturing Company,
Dr Jukebox (Jens A.
Hultgren), for his enormous knowledge of jukeboxes

has build up a huge library of manuals, brochures and other jukebox
related material (and not only Rock-ola!)

steppers

Prices listed
Prices listed are always
grade 1 prices, i.e. for very good to mint objects, clean
inside, no wear and tear and working perfectly. It might have been
restored, but it looks like a factory machine.
When in condition:
grade 2 - shows some signs of use, but is clean and works all
the time: deduct app. 40% from grade 1 price
grade 3 - cabinet needs some work on the
outside, chrome is in fair shape, dome glass in tact, a part of the
play cycle works, all major parts are there: deduct app. 70% from
grade 1 price
Please notice this is a rough indication !
And of course, to all the others I
did not call by name:
for correcting errors,
sending in photo's of their jukes, coin-ops etc., reminding me about
nice sites, auctions on eBay,
discussions about tiny details,
and so forth . . .
Without your continious help this
site would have simply stopped growing,
so:
Thanks to you all!
