This is an Antique / Vintage 1935 Art Deco Shyvers Multiphone Jukebox Table Top Music Selector. Very Nice Condition...Measures 18 inches tall...Has No. 1414 on the top...Colored Glass Jewel Lights in Good Condition...A very beautiful Art Deco design and a very unique device.The Shyvers Multiphone, released in 1935 by Kenneth C. Shyvers, was an interesting idea as a coin-operated phonograph (also known as a jukebox). It allowed patrons at restaurants, cafes and bars to play music at the...ir table, and worked through telephone lines. This unit has no self contained music. The user inserted the necessary amount of coins, and was connected to a team of all-female disc jockeys in Seattle, who manually put on the selected song on a phonograph, playing the music through the telephone connection. Included with this example is a photograph of the lady DJs , instructions , a Shyvers Spinner Token , and key to the lock. ( lock barrel is out in the photos but I have complete lock) Definitely one of the most attractive jukebox items ever made...Buyer Pays Shipping
