Arena (1975)

The Old Brass Plate Rattle Test: The Englishman And His Jukebox (1989x10)

Data de estreia: Mar 17, 1989

Jukeboxes once entertained bars, diners and roadstops throughout America, but are now highly collectable artifacts, fulfilling the dreams, memories and fantasies of their proud owners. The Americans are celebrating the 100th anniversary of the jukebox this year, but some say an Englishman by the name of Charles Adams-Randall pipped the Americans to the post when he patented a coin-operated phonograph in 1888. Since then the jukebox has found a special way into the Englishman's heart. Arena explores the world of the jukebox in England and finds that, if an Englishman's home is his castle, then surely no castle could be complete without one of these fine articles.
