Today in my travels I stopped at a junk store in the heights of Houston and asked if he had any old tobacco pipes . The man told me no but what he did have was a working jukebox for 900 and the booth controls for 90 each . As time went on he said ,Ill show you something he led to the back of a darkened wharehouse and flipped on the light . Low and behold he was holding onto at least 40 old time jukeboxs some from the 40s and 50s .Talk about time travel . He also stated that some where not for sale .

I was looking for pipes , sometimes you can get lucky this old guy did not even have a computer to check values . The Heights in Houston is old and is being torn down for three story condos , got me a couple of nice old Kaywoodies for two and three bucks at another shop . Plus junk stores beat work ,LOL

Igloo,
If you wind up pulling the trigger, please post pictures! That would be an awesome thing to have in the house. Add a kegerator, a pool table, and a wet bar, and you're in the big leagues.
I wouldn't even need a very old jukebox to be happy with it. (The jukeboxes I've seen lately look too modern and hi-tech.) Just give me a Wurlitzer with the bubbles and I'd a happy camper. If it played 45s, that'd be a big plus, but not necessary.
