   Hello, and I while I can't provide you an answer, your AMI box model was   
   always one of my favorites.  A patron always got a clear view of the   
   mechanics of record selection and playing.  Just as much fun as hearing   
   the record.  I always thought the AMI engineers, unlike most of the   
   other JB mfrs, began with a conventional phonograph and then added the   
   components to enable coin-operated record playing.  The Seeburg   
   mechanism was elegant and unique in its own right but not as much fun to   
   watch IMO.  The other "fun" mechanism was the way 78 rpm Wurlitzer boxes   
   played records with that elevating turntable.  Now keep that box   
   running!  Sincerely,
