Product information
The jukebox manufacturer AMI produced this equipment and called it Automatic Hostess. It operated much like a present day internet jukebox.
The units that were placed in the local taverns looked like a regular jukebox, but had no phonograph mechanism.
The patron at the tavern would deposit a coin, then speak into a microphone which connected them to one of the operators at the studio, who would then locate the record, and play the request.
It was a technology ahead of its time and only lasted until the mid-50’s.
This fantastic machine is bought by the Dutch Pickers, follow them on Facebook and Instagram.
