The Seeburg M100C was introduced in 1952 and is a particularly pretty machine, with its bold chrome grille framed by attractive multi coloured rotating columns. Like many Seeburg designs it was striking and original, showing what could be achieved with a fresh approach and inspiring many imitators.

The company was founded way back in 1902 and in addition to manufacturing a wide variety of musical and vending equipment over the decades, they also went on to introduce many innovative jukebox features that were later adopted by other companies.

Their Select-o-Matic record selection mechanism is case in point, with its trademark design feature of holding all the records in a vertical row. They are played in this vertical orientation too, which is markedly different to most jukeboxes of the era which would take the disks from a circular carousel and place them on a conventional turntable. The M100C holds 50 45rpm records thereby yielding a total of 100 selections with A and B sides.

Rare though many of these machines are, rarer still are the examples which have been properly restored or can truthfully be said to be in full working order. It goes without saying that when unrestored machines come up for sale online or at auction, they’ll often be priced rather lower than the machines sold by The Games Room Company, and the point we wish to get across above all others is that there’s a reason for this. In this business The Games Room Company’s reputation is second to none, and as it’s been hard won over the years it’s something we never take for granted. Every machine that goes off to a customer, be they corporate or private, is a potential advertisement for the business and if we didn’t do our job properly then we wouldn’t have the high number of loyal, returning customers that we do.

This particular machine has been thoroughly stripped down and refurbished, resulting in a jukebox which is in near mint condition inside and out, and of couse she comes with our usual One Year Parts and Labour Warranty. This warranty extends to on-site visits so if your machine does require some attention you won’t necessarily have to endure the pain of separation. 

Over the years we are fortunate enough to have gathered together a select few individuals whose enthusiasm for jukeboxes, pinball machines and vintage arcade games ensures that they are never less than 100% committed to the task in hand. They quite simply love breathing new life into old circuitry and want to see as many of these classic pieces preserved for future generations as possible.

We’ve always recognised that with specialised products such as these the after sales service is just as important as the initial sale. It takes a long time to build a reputation and over the years our commitment has won us not just the loyalty of our clients but also the trust of the last remaining American Jukebox manufacturer, Rockola, who in 2014 appointed us as their Exclusive British dealer.

Music itself is an important part of our business, as reflected by our treasured vinyl library, so we are able to help you source and create the perfect playlist. We also make all of the title cards in original typewriter font – so if you’re a bit stuck for choice, we are only too happy to help!   

The Games Room Company is one of the oldest jukebox dealers in the country. Our founder, Reginald Waldersmith, first learned about jukeboxes in the early 1950s when we were servicing jukeboxes on American Air Force bases. We’ve been selling jukeboxes since 1962, so know a thing or two about our products! Our showroom will gladly assist you on any questions you may have before or after you purchase any Games Room Company equipment.

Music and Title Cards Pricing

The charge for vintage records is £15 + VAT per record, this covers most records however some are highly collectable for which we have to pay a premium and are charge at a higher price. The title card service is £75 + VAT.

It is quite an involved process supply records as we buy them in from dealers or collectors, they will only guarantee the "A" side, so often many records do not pass with us because we always supply records with playable "B" sides as well as the "A".

The centres are then cut (big hole centres) which also leads to some breakage as some of the records split due to their age. Finally they are hand washed and then played both "A" and "B" side on a gramophone for sound quality, only then are they fit to go on the Jukebox. The final check is again playing "A" and "B" side as you would hear it on your Jukebox.

It's all about delivering good quality sound for our clients and if you are investing in a vinyl jukebox the standard of the records have to demonstrate the high standard of our restorations.
