This machine is called a Nickelodeon, it was used as a jukebox from 1890 to around 1930 in pool halls and brothels around the world. All the music is read by a paper role -like a pianola. All the instruments function inside this machine.
Dig that percussion section!
I saw it in Daylesford, Victoria -sorry the quality isn't very good.
