Today, I looked at a Jukebox that I could have bought for $40; but, I passed on it. It was an MSN brand 45 rpm box that looked to be from the late '80's. It was sitting outside under a covered overhang at an antiques mall. It was very dirty and looked to have had extreme moisture to the cabinet. There was a service date of '94 on it and it was full of country records from the early-to-mid '90's. It had a cloth speaker grille at the bottom. Above the grille, there was a glass where the mechanism could be seen. Then, the title strip area was on the top of the jukebox. The sides were made of particleboard with fake woodgrain finish. I talked to a friend, who knows more about jukeboxes than I do; and, he said these boxes were very problematic and that I did the right thing by leaving it alone. Before today, I'd never heard of an MSN branded box.
