Description
Step back in time with this fascinating, original double-sided advertising flyer for the “Automatic Reginaphone No. 100,” manufactured by the renowned Regina Music Box Company. This rare piece of coin-op history details a “talking machine” that has six cylinder records, showcasing testimonies from business owners touting its profitability in hotels and clubs. The front features a wonderful graphic of the machine on its optional iron stand, while the reverse provides technical specifications and mentions optional rubber ear tubes for penny arcades. The paper shows expected signs of age, including mild toning, minor edge wear, creasing, and small tears along the margins, but the text and central illustrations remain clear and highly legible. H 7″, W 5″. Please see photos for condition. From the Allan Koenigsberg collection.
